The Calendar tab provides an overview of the student’s attendance by month and date. It is one of three tabs used for entering and editing student attendance information. The other two tabs are the Daily Entry tab and Days of Activity tab.
The Days of Activity tab lists all dates on which an absence was recorded for the student. It shows date and weekday that the absence was recorded, and the absence reason is displayed in the AM or PM column (for twice-a-day attendance) or in the Reason 1 column (for once-a-day attendance).
The Totals tab summarizes the number of absences by reason or by type. The Reason Percentage and Type Percentage are calculated based on the number of times a reason/type is selected, divided by the Total Days Enrolled to Date.
The History tab lists all dates on which an absence or tardy was recorded for the student, similar to the Days of Activity tab. However, it provides more detailed information regarding the time of arrival and departure. It also provides additional notes regarding the reason for the tardy or absence. Once a date is recorded within the Days of Activity tab, the information can be edited in the History tab.
The Daily Entry tab is designed to be used to enter and edit detailed information regarding student absences. This is the only place to view the total minutes attended for a day. It is one of three tabs used for entering and editing student attendance information. The other two tabs are the Calendar tab and Days of Activity tab.
The Attendance Letters tab lists all attendance letters that have been sent to the student and/or parents. Definitions and parameters for absence and tardy letters are established in the Attendance Letter screen.
