Face-to-Face Attendance Period Requirements

Guidance Materials:

WAC Effective August 20, 2022:

WAC 392-700-015: Attendance Period Requirement

"Attendance period requirement" is defined as, at minimum, two hours of face-to-face interaction with designated program staff for the purpose of instruction, academic counseling, career counseling, or case management contact aggregated over the prior month. In-person face-to-face interaction is required for the month that the student was claimed for the first time. The interaction may include an option for digital-synchronous interaction when a student:

  1. requests digital-synchronous options; or
  2. requires digital-synchronous access as determined by program staff.
  3. If, after every three months of claimed enrollment, the student has not earned an indicator of academic progress through the utilization of digital-synchronous interaction, then the interaction must return to in-person face-to-face until an indicator of academic progress is earned.

Contact methods:

The following contact methods meet the digital-synchronous face-to-face allowance. Permission must be obtained from the parent, or the student if age 18+, in writing for recording video communications. Email does not meet the requirements of the face-to-face rule unless immediate/synchronous responses can be documented.

In-person

  • Please see your state and local guidance regarding current local health department and school guidelines, including vaccination, social distancing, and masking for students and staff.
