school policy

Email received from the Pupil Personnel Worker:
"It is State and County policy and procedure for school staff to mark students present if they are present in school (see definitions in policies) and absent if they are absent from school. This is a very serious situation and I hope you will view it as such."

If anyone was wondering what to do with those attendance sheets, this email should have cleared up the confusion.

What's even better is that apparently this email was needed enough for it to be sent.
