Monitoring Chronic Absenteeism

  1. Family Services Coordinator will run the ChildPlus 2306 report on the 10th of the month.

  1. For any child who shows up on the report, the Family Services Coordinator will cross check with the Monthly Summary Report received from Family Service staff.
  2. If the child listed on the 2306 is not listed on the Family Service staff’s Monthly Summary Report, the Family Services Coordinator will check the ChildPlus Individual Attendance Module in ChildPlus to verify reason for absences. If the child’s absences are coded as “Excused,” then a follow-up email is not necessary. If a child’s absences are coded as “Unexcused” and the child is not listed on the Monthly Summary Report, the Family Services Coordinator will send the Family Services staff, their direct supervisor, and the Area Manager a follow-up email.  An example of the email is provided below:

 Johnny M (13131) was absent 15 days within the last 60 days.  6 of them being marked as unexcused.
