Report 14.2 - Student Absences-Student List
(Updated 04/15/2024)
Description: Reports a student list of positive attendance and student absenteeism by days of expected attendance, days attended and days absent. Absences are totaled by days excused, days unexcused, and days missed due to out-of-school suspensions.
Security Role Required: EOY 3 Reports
Data As Of: - Snapshot version, any time in the reported academic year (7/1 – 6/30)
Basic selection criteria:
- Any open or closed enrollment within the LEA at any time during the Report Period (7/1/2023 -6/30/2024) qualifies for selection.
- Enrollment Status Code = Primary Enrollment (10), Short Term Enrollment (30)
-
Default Grade Level = TK, KN, 01 – 12, UE, US
-
Qualifying Data:
- Student Absent Summary Record (Record Type = STAS) for the Academic Year being reported
- Student Enrollment (SENR) reported or used for selecting student subgroups (e.g. Enrollment Status and Grade Level) are associated with the most recent qualifying enrollment at the school during the Report Period
- Student Information (SINF) data reported or used for selecting student subgroups (e.g. Ethnicity/Race) are selected from the most recent SINF record with Effective Start Date and Effective End Date (if exists) that overlap the most recent qualifying enrollment at the school during the Report Period
- Student Program (SPRG) data used for selecting student subgroups (e.g., Special Education Program) are selected from the most recent SPRG record for the same school of attendance as the STAS record with the Education Program membership Start Date and Education program Membership End Date (if exists) that overlap with the most recent qualifying enrollment at the school during the Report
- Student English Language Acquisition Status (SELA) data reported or used for selecting student subgroups (e.g. ELAS Status) are selected from SELA record for students with a qualifying enrollment. Student English Language Acquisition (SELA) reporting will need to find the most recent status on the report date (using Effective Start Date) that was effective during the reporting period, regardless of Reporting LEA (unless specified otherwise in the specific report data field).
Report Filters: Filters can be selected resulting in only totals for the selected filter being displayed
- Academic Year
- LEA
- Status
- School Type
- School
- Grade
- Gender
- Ethnicity/Race
- Enrollment Status
- English Language Acquisition Status
- Socio-economically Disadvantaged
- Students with Disabilities
- Homeless Program Eligible
- Title I Part C Migrant
- Hourly Attendance Indicator
- Absenteeism Category

*Note: This filter will affect the formula for determining the absence rate for each student when being displayed on the report. When a specific absence type is selected, only those records with at least one day in the selected absence type will appear on the report with all of the record’s data populated. Example: When Out-of-School Suspension is selected, the formula rate = Out of School Suspension Days/Expected Attendance Days multiplied by 100.

8 | Ethnicity/Race: |
1) If the Student Hispanic Ethnicity Indicator (SINF 2.23) = Y, always roll up to Hispanic, even if one or more races are selected or the Student Race Missing Indicator (SINF 2.30) = Y | |
2) If Student Hispanic Ethnicity Missing Indicator (SINF 2.23) = N or null and the Student Ethnicity Missing Indicator (SINF 2.24) = Y or null and Student Race 1 - 5 Codes (SINFs 2.25 - 2.29) is indicated, then roll up per rules outlined in 5 below. | |
3) If the Student Hispanic Ethnicity Indicator (SINF 2.23) = N and the Student Race Missing Indicator (SINF 2.30) = Y, then roll up to ""Missing"". | |
4) If the Student Hispanic Ethnicity Indicator (SINF 2.23) = N or null, and the Student Race Missing Indicator (SINF 2.30) = Y, then roll up to ""Missing."" | |
5) If the Student Hispanic Ethnicity Indicator (SINF 2.23) = N or null, and the Student Race Missing Indicator (SINF 2.30) = N or null,amd Student Race 1-5 Codes (SINF 2.25 - 2.29) is indicated, then roll up as follows: | |

22 | Days Absent (C + E + F+ G) or (15 + 17 + 18 + 19) |
Calculation: Days Absent out-of-School Suspension + Days Absent Excused Non-suspension + Days Absent Unexcused Non-suspension + Incomplete Independent Study Days | |
Note: This formula is dependent on the filters selected for absent type. | |
23 | % Absent (((C +E+F+G)/A x100) or (15 + 17 + 18 + 19)/13, multiplied by 100 |
Calculation: Days Absent out-of-School Suspension + Days Absent Excused Non-suspension + Days Absent Unexcused Non-suspension + Incomplete Independent Study Days Divided by Expected Attendance Days Multiplied by 100 to get percentage. | |
Rate is calculated as a percent to the second decimal (000.00%) | |
Note: This formula is dependent on the filters selected for absent type. | |
24 | Chronically Absent (DataQuest) (>=10%) |
This is the definition used for the Absenteeism reports on Dataquest: | |
Calculation: If % Absent => 10% and Expected Attendance Days > 30 days, then Y, else blank. | |
25 | Chronically Absent (Accountability) (>=10%) |
This is the definition used in the Dashboard: Calculation: If % Absent =>10% and Expected Attendance Days >30 days, and student is in Grades KN – 8 then Y, else blank. |
