40 Tex. Admin. Code § 807.283 - Attendance Record Keeping
Current through Reg. 46, No. 53; December 31, 2021
(a)
The following requirements are for non-Title IV schools:
(1) A school offering seminars or other
programs where students do not change instructors during the school day is not
required to maintain a separate master record of attendance.
(2) A school shall maintain a master record
of attendance on each student that clearly indicates the number of scheduled
hours each day and the hours of absence.
(3) Each instructor shall maintain a record
of attendance, which shall indicate a positive record of each student's
attendance. Entries in the record of attendance shall be made in ink or other
permanent medium, including other permanent computer records, and shall not be
changed in a manner that precludes reading the original entry.
(b) The following requirements are
for Title IV schools:
(1) The school shall
maintain a form signed and dated by the student to document the student's
participation in an academically related activity. An e-mail sent from the
student's e-mail account listed on the enrollment agreement fulfills this
requirement.
(2) The school shall
maintain a master record for each student that clearly indicates the student's
class schedule as well as the number of scheduled hours for each class day. For
synchronous distance education students, the record shall indicate the number
of scheduled hours for each week.
(c) Nothing in this chapter prevents a Title
IV school from voluntarily using attendance as a manner of fulfilling the
requirements of this chapter.
