School Attendance Information

Under New Law All PPSD Students Must Be Present for 63% of the School Day. Students should limit checking in and out of school this year due to the new House Bill 1530. Under the new law, students must be in school for at least 63 percent of the instructional day to be considered present for calculations under the Mississippi Adequate Education Program. Previously, what constituted a school day varied by district, with some having high expectations and others simply requiring a student to sign in.
