Attendance Setup

Attendance: it’s kind of a big deal.

 

Attendance in FACTS SIS   

Did you know, that a school with:

Students     200

Periods per day     7

School days per year     180

# of attendance codes     4

Potential attendance errors per year?

1,008,000

 

We know it’s important to gather and keep real-time, accurate attendance information. That’s why we have great tools to improve your record-keeping and reporting.

FACTS SIS allows schools to collect classroom attendance data using either a homeroom or period method, and automatically calculates a day attendance mark based on variables that you define. Schools have the ability to use existing attendance codes and also to add custom codes to fit their specific needs.
