Absences and late arrivals logged before first period
From 7:30 to 8:30 the front office is signing in late students and handing over forgotten lunches. Every absence and late call is answered and marked, and teachers see it before attendance.
A parent calls to report an absence, a late arrival or an early pickup.
Marks attendance, passes messages to teachers, routes urgent concerns.
An accurate attendance list and messages on the right teacher's desk.
How it works
- Answers the rush
Every call between drop-off and the first bell, as many at once as come in.
- Confirms the student
Name, grade and homeroom, matched to the parent calling.
- Marks the reason
Ill, appointment, family travel, late arrival with the expected time, or early dismissal with who's picking up.
- Passes messages
"Please tell Mr. Chen she'll miss the chemistry quiz." The note goes to that teacher.
- Puts urgent calls through
A worry about a child's safety or wellbeing goes straight to the principal or vice-principal as a warm transfer.
- Signs out early pickups
The office has the time and the name of the authorized adult, ready at the desk.

Will it share information about a student?
