Manual Flexible Attendance

Enter Manual Flexible Attendance

PowerSchool will continue to support the manual recording of Flex Attendance records, and will also support a new option for automatic reporting of Flex Attendance based on scheduled classes for the student, and the minutes for those classes as defined in the bell schedule.

• For districts that prefer to manually record and/or import daily flexible attendance records, the existing data entry page in State/Province - TX, is now named "Manual Flexible Attendance".The Flexible Attendance Program Type codes have been updated to remove the leading zero's per the TEA code table.When entering Flex Attendance ADA Eligibility Codes of 7 or 8 in the PEIMS General record, a new validation now requires that the Flexible Attendance Program Type also be entered in the PEIMS General record.

• For districts adopting the new, automatic reporting option, students must be coded for the Flexible Attendance Program Type (E1045) in the new field provided in the PEIMS General record.When the student enters the Flex Attendance program, a new PEIMS General record must be created with one of the following Flexible Attendance Codes:(1) OFSDP - Optional Flexible School Day Program(2) HSEP - High School Equivalency Program(3) OFSDP - Credit/Promotion Recovery Program(6) OFSDP - Online Dropout Recovery ProgramThe ADA Eligibility Code must be set to either (7) Eligible - Flexible Attendance Program Participation or (8) Ineligible - Flexible Attendance Program Participation.If the student exits the Flex Attendance program, the current PEIMS General record must be closed out and a new record created with the Flexible Attendance Program Type re-set to the NULL default of "Select Code" and the ADA Eligibility Code set to a value other than 7 or 8.
