Teachers:

  • Enter attendance electronically for each period, by the end of the period.  The last period’s attendance must be entered within 15 minutes of the end of the day.
  • If the teacher isn’t able to enter attendance electronically, the teacher will send an Attendance Roster (Register Report) to the office.  The Attendance Secretary will enter the attendance through the Classroom monitor.

  • Confirm that attendance has been entered each period by teachers through the Classroom Monitor.
  •  Change all Absent Unknowns to UNX and all Tardy Unknowns to TTC through the Attendance Wizard throughout the day, at the end of the day, or the beginning of the following day. To change Unknown attendance events, follow the steps below.
