Attendance Date Picker
If the date picker is displayed at the top of the screen it will show a date range of three weeks. Initially when you enter the Grades and Attendance screen the date range will be the range surrounding today’s date, or the closest in-session date for the school calendar. You may scroll through the dates by selecting the left and right arrows.
Period Attendance Grid
Beside the class information will be the Period Attendance Summary if the required information exists in the extracted data. Each square in the Period Attendance grid indicates a day within the date range. The colours indicate the period attendance code for this student, and if the class was in session for that day.
- Dark Grey: School not in session
- Light Grey: Class not in session
- White: Present, or no attendance exported.
- Yellow: Tardy or Late code for this day.
- Red: Absent or Truant code for this day.
Daily Attendance
If your extracted information contains a calendar, term start and end dates and daily attendance information the daily attendance will display for this student. Each square in the Daily Attendance grid indicates a day within the date range. The colours indicate the daily attendance code for this student.
- Dark Grey: School not in session.
- White: Present, or no attendance exported.
- Yellow: Tardy or Late code for this day.
- Red: Absent or Truant code for this day.
