Report Absences

You can now submit information regarding absences, such as doctor's notes, in ParentVUE.

Parents can also submit notes for future days the student will be absent (up to 7 days into the future).  This feature is only for when students will be absent for the whole day.  If the student will be tardy or absent for only a few periods, please submit the note the following day, after attendance has been recorded.

From the app home screen, students with absences will appear with a number above the "Report Absence" button.  Notes should be submitted within seven days of an absence.  (Absences can be submitted for same-day full absences.  Notes for same-day absences can be submitted until 9:00 am.)
