Overview
The Average Attendance Reports provide attendance statistics at the grade level for a selected reporting period. These reports help administrators monitor attendance trends by calculating key metrics such as Average Daily Attendance (ADA), Average Attendance, and Average Absence.
openSIS offers two average attendance reports:
-
Average Daily Attendance – Displays attendance statistics summarized by grade level for a selected reporting period.
-
Average Attendance by Day – Displays attendance statistics for each day within the selected reporting period, allowing administrators to analyze daily attendance trends across grade levels.
Use these reports to evaluate school-wide attendance performance, compare attendance across grades, and identify attendance patterns over time.
Unlike the Attendance Report by Day, which focuses on individual students, these reports provide aggregated attendance statistics.
