DEFINITION
Under general supervision, at a regular district high school, supervise
and personally perform daily student attendance accounting; supervise
clerical staff and students assisting in attendance accounting; prepare or
monitor attendance reports and attendance records; and do relate work as
required.
JOB
CHARACTERISTICS
Employees in this class perform a wide variety of duties which require the
exercise of independent judgment and discretion in handling problems which
may arise. Frequent public contacts in person or by telephone
require the application of established policies and procedures, but
questions are referred to high authority when a procedure has not been
established. Supervision of one or more employees and students is
typical of this class.
Attendance Technician II is differentiated from Attendance Technician I
primarily by the level of difficulty of tasks assigned, the extent of
independent judgment exercised, the kind of supervision received, the
nature of public contacts, and the typical responsibility for supervision
of others.
Typing, possibly including on a computer terminal, is requirement for all
positions in this class, but the percentage of time spent in typing varies
considerably.
