On the first day of school, in the Attendance column, the Activate and Inactive fields are displayed for all students instead of the Absent and Present fields. All students are set to Inactive by default.

Activate

Select on the first day-period the student is present.

Activation is a one-time process. Once a student has been activated in any period by any teacher, the student is active for all remaining periods for the day, and subsequent teachers will mark attendance using the Absent and Present fields.

The next period you have the student (either later in the day or the next class date), the Absent, Tardy, and Present fields will be displayed for the student.

NOTE: Activated students are considered present and are included in the total number of students displayed in the # Students field at the bottom of the grid.

Inactive

If the student is not present, leave that student set to Inactive until they attend class.

As long as the student is marked as Inactive, he is considered a No Show. You cannot mark attendance for an inactive student.

Inactive students are not included in the total number of students displayed in the # Students field at the bottom of the grid.

NOTE: If there are students from multiple attendance tracks enrolled in the course, and the tracks have different ending dates for mass activation, the track number is displayed in parentheses in the Attendance column.
