ability to remove a late notice if in error
It's easy to select more than one kid/wrong kid if you have more than one child listed on My family room - would be nice to be able to remove the notice if you make a mistake - or if circumstances change and they are going to be on time after all.

When confirming absences there should be a comment area where you can provide details such as child was called down to student services.
There should be a detail area where you can provide info about the absence or non- absence in some cases. I have had instances with both of my sons where I get notified that they missed a class and it has proven to be either the wrong student was marked (verified by teacher) or my son was called out of the class for a meeting with the guidance counsellor about course selection or another similar issue. I am sure that our family can't be the only one this happens to. If I say No I wasn't aware of the absence…

Approved people for Pick up Listing
Is there somewhere already that we can add who has authority to pick up my children other than myself and my husband? I would like to be able to add my son as a pick up authority.

They should attach the email addresses of your child's teacher beside the courses so it's easy to contact the teacher with any concerns
The areas where your child's course codes/ course names are there should also be the teachers email address so that you can contact the teacher easily if you have any concerns or just need to talk with them. It wouldn't take much on your part and would make it so much easier for busy working concerned parents that want to be apart of their child's education

In the attendance summary I think they should be in order of dates absent or late as it makes it harder to find out if your child was absent
Please put attendance/late in order from when they happen.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion.
Yes, we agree it would be best if the absences were sorted by DATE rather than DAY.
We will investigate to resolve this issue.

Move the Attendance button
On my mobile device the Attendance button is in a grey box on the far bottom left of the screen. It's likely a high traffic button - move it to a more easily visible location at the top of the screen.

It would be helpful to have a box where I can type text for when none of the reasons offered cover an absence.
Text box for person using site.

The absence reasons available for selection are the reasons used for internal tracking of student absences. We can consider an option for an ‘Other’ reason and provide an opportunity to enter more details regarding the absence.
