Managing Attendance in SPARK MINDS
SPARK MINDS provides a straightforward way to manage student attendance, encompassing features to mark absences and update attendance if needed. Below is an overview of these features organized step-by-step for both parents and administrators.
How to Mark a Student Absent
Parents now have the ability to mark their child as absent directly within the SPARK MINDS app if the student will not be attending class that day. Here’s how:
Log in to the SPARK MINDS app.
Navigate to the Attendance section.
Select the Absent Report option to mark your child as absent.
This feature ensures accurate and up-to-date attendance records. Administrators can also view all students marked as absent in the Attendance > Absent Report section.
How to Update Attendance if a Student Comes Late
In the event that a student is marked absent but later attends class, administrators can update their attendance using the following steps:
Go to the student’s profile within the SPARK MINDS platform.
Open the Attendance tab.
Disable the Mark Absent for Today toggle at the top of the section.
Record their attendance for any attended classes by selecting the Add Attendance button on the same screen.
This process ensures that attendance data remains accurate and reflects any changes during the school day.
Additional Notes
Both parents and administrators play a role in maintaining accurate attendance records.
These features help streamline communication and enhance transparency within school communities.
