AOE Regulations Re: HomeSchool Students and Attendance


Home study student - A student who is enrolled in a VT AOE home study program. These students may be taking academic courses and considered part-time students, or they may be taking advantage of extracurricular programs. These students should appear on your enrollment record, but attendance should be recorded only for students taking academic classes.

Do not record attendance for home study students who are not taking academic courses but participate in extra-curricular activities.

A student officially enrolled elsewhere but taking courses at this school (e.g., a home study student taking academic classes) will be recorded in attendance on those days the student is expected to attend classes and absent on days that the student is expected but does not appear. Days that a part-time student is not expected in school are not counted as either an attendance or absence.  -- this is the answer. Use SNE.
