Are all given days such as unscheduled days, staff meetings, and staff retreats counted as attendance or are given days only for holidays?
A3. Unscheduled days, staff meetings and staff retreats do not count as attendance. Given days would include professional development activities that cause class not to meet, emergency closings, and 13 holidays per year. Given days would count toward enrollment hours, but not toward attendance hours. However, unscheduled days would include all days when class is cancelled for any other reason, i.e., spring break, etc. And unscheduled days would not count toward attendance or enrollment hours. (see section 5.4 number 5 in the provider manual).
