Setting Up Homeroom Attendance

Homeroom Attendance/Daily Attendance is used if the attendance needs to be taken only once a day. The homeroom teacher takes attendance for students enrolled in his/her homeroom class. 

Two steps to set up homeroom attendance:

1. Set up homerooms
2. Enroll students to their homeroom

Setting Up Homerooms

1. Go to Classes & Homerooms tab
   
   
2. Click the “Add Homeroom Teacher” button
   
   
3. Enter the teacher’s name in the Homeroom Teacher box then set the homeroom name and abbreviation. Click the OK button to save.
   
   Note that the system assigns the teacher’s name as the default homeroom name and abbreviation. Feel free to change this should you prefer a different name.
   
   
4. Repeat the steps above to create homeroom/s for each grade level.
