Abbreviated School Day (Oregon)

The Abbreviated School Day Program tracks students who receive instruction or education services for fewer hours than most students in the same grade within the student's resident school district. Data recorded here reports in the Abbreviated School Day Collection. 

Overlapping records are not allowed. When a student's program status changes, the current record needs to be ended, and a new record needs to be added with the new program status.

State Definition of Abbreviated School Day

An abbreviated school day means any school day during which a student receives instruction or educational services for fewer hours than most students in the same grade within the student’s resident school district. A student on an abbreviated school day for more than 10 school days per school year constitutes an abbreviated school day program.

Any student who has an IEP, a 504 plan, or is undergoing an initial evaluation to determine eligibility for either Special Education or Section 504 and who is placed on an abbreviated school day program for greater than 10 school days per school year must be reported in the Abbreviated School Day Collection. 

Each instance of a student being placed on an abbreviated school day program during the reporting period is entered separately. The reporting period for each school year is July 1 to June 30.

See the Oregon Department of Education website for more information.
