Before the District Attendance Report can be printed, a report instance must be generated from the calculated data for a specified apportionment period. This report instance is archived and later used when a printed report is needed for that apportionment period. The CA District Attendance Report Generation application is used to:

  • Calculate line totals for the CA District Attendance CDE Form based on weekly summary data generated by the CA Attendance Summary Calculation process.
  • Indicate when caps have been surpassed.
  • Allow adjustments (editing) to calculated line totals.
  • Archive line totals, caps, and adjustments.
  • Printing the CA District Attendance Detail report.

CA District Attendance Report Generation is located under the Attendance menu in Q.
