Elementary School Attendance Counts!
-
Daily attendance in school is a strong indicator of future success.
Per the Student Attendance Accounting Handbook provided by Texas Education Agency, a student is considered either present or absent at the official attendance-taking time, known as snapshot.
Each campus attendance is determined by the number of students present at this important designated snapshot time. The elementary school snapshot time is 10:00 a.m.
To ensure academic engagement and successful learning, all students should be present daily by snapshot and remain academically engaged all day.
Attendance Policies and Procedures
-
The district attendance policies and procedures can be found in the FBISD Student/Parent Handbook.
Tardies/Arriving Late to School
- Students are considered tardy if they arrive after 8:10 a.m. If the student arrives after 10:00 a.m. (official attendance time), the student will be marked absent.
Leaving School Early
- Parents and students must adhere to the following procedures:
- Please call or email the Attendance Office prior to 3:00, so we can have your child ready for pick-up.
- For your student's safety, parents/guardians picking up the student MUST be on that student's emergency contact list and have a valid picture ID.
