Step 2Teachers will mark students that are “No Shows” with an “X” on the attendance roster from Lynx.

Step 3Attendance Clerks will fill out the Daily Enrollment Count Sheet (Warm Body Count) for their campus (Secondary schools will use 2nd Period Rosters) and submit it to the Department of Technology by 12:00 p.m. This will only be done the first day of classes.

 The enrollment count report for the Superintendent’s report will be generated using the student enrollment counts that are in the Tyler Technologies System. It is important that all campuses deactivate “no show” students on a daily basis so that the Superintendent’s enrollment count report is accurate.

Step 4Attendance Clerks will deactivate students that are marked with an “x” from EDP as soon as possible but definitely before leaving for the day. This will impact the Daily Enrollment Count that is submitted to the Superintendents Office.
