Activity Absence Report Page

For each activity selected, this report lists the students in the activity who have an absence in one or more of the selected periods. The report can be distributed daily to the building's teachers.

To ensure that you do not update any students who may have a different absence code already entered, we recommend that you run the Activity Absence report before using the Activity mode in Attendance Entry (Attendance > All >Office > Attendance Entry).

For example, if a member of the drama club has received an in-school suspension, she should not be updated with the Field Trip code used for other students in the club. Instead, she should be excluded from the update so that the office entry of In-School Suspension stands.

Also, the listing can be used to inform the activity teacher or coach which students will not be participating because they are absent.
