-== Divisional Policy ==
-=== Lower School ===
+Attendance for all divisions must be entered consistently and accurately to ensure the school knows the whereabouts of all students at all times.
+==Lower School==
 Lower School daily attendance (also know as master attendance) should be entered by homebase teachers in the [https://portals.veracross.com/riverdale Veracross Faculty Portal] by 9am each day. Specials teachers do not need to enter attendance at this time since we do not take Class Attendance for the lower school.

+==Middle and Upper School==
 You are required to report attendance for every class of the day using the [https://portals.veracross.com/riverdale Veracross Faculty Portal]. Many teachers find it easier to take attendance at the beginning of each class rather than entering all of your attendance at the end of the day. You are welcome to do the same.

 Please use the “notes” section of Veracross to indicate whether a student is excused from class by another obligation (Testing, sports event, etc).

+==General Attendance Reminders==
+===When To Take Attendance===
+Please do your very best to take attendance at the beginning of every class! It is also especially important for all of the morning attendance to be submitted by 12:00pm. I need that information in order to determine which students are not accounted for that day.
+===Attendance Related Emails===
+Sometimes parents or students email teachers directly about missing class. If I am not CC’d on that email, please forward it to me! In addition, please encourage parents to submit attendance requests into the parent portal. All attendance requests must come from parents.
+===Substituting a Class?===
+If you are subbing for someone else, please email me the names of the students who are NOT in class. If all are present, just send me a quick “everyone’s here” email!
+===End-of-the-Day Emails===
+If a student misses your class with no explanation, mark them as “Not in Class.” Towards the end of the day, I pull a query of all students marked "Not in Class." Each of those students (along with their teacher for that class and their dean) will get an automated email asking the student to explain their absence. If the student does not explain their absence, that mark is switched from “Not in Class” to “Absent Unexcused.”
+==Any Questions or Comments?==
+Feel free to stop by Reception (Room 1110 in Mow) any time for assistance. Additionally, you can call ext #2700 or ext #0 during the day with any questions or attendance related information.
