- In the F2F setting, teachers will mark students who are physically in class as present. In the remote setting, when the class is being taught synchronously, the teacher will mark students who log in and actively participate as present. Please talk to your teacher if you have any questions regarding participation in class as a remote student.
When absences do occur, parents and guardians (only) can submit the Student Attendance Form to report that absence to the school.
