Taking Attendance at Yavneh Academy using School’s On I Net
This year at Yavneh Academy teachers in the lower school are required to take attendance using Schools on Net. In the past everyday we were required to write down on paper each child’s name who was absent. A person from the office would pick up the document and then hand it to the nurse. The nurse was responsible to enter into the computer the students names from the entire school who were absent on a given day. There were many steps to this process which caused many problems.The teachers had to also write on the paper which bus the child would have taken home if he/she was in school.
The problem arrived when a child would come to school late and wouldn’t report to the office to have his/her name removed from the absentee list. Often at end of the day the teachers who had bus duty would have the wrong list and sometimes children who were assumed absent were really in school. As you could see there was a “balagan”.
Now taking attendance is just 1 click away. Simply you log onto your account and look for attendance. Automatically it shows 100% attendance which makes it simple for you without needing to click each and every student who is in class. If a child is absent or late you simply click what ever the case may be and that is it! After we do attendance which takes about a whole minute we then print 2 copies. One for us to have to give to the teacher who is teaching in the afternoon and 1 for the office to have for their records. Its that simple!
Thank you Schools on Net for making it easier for us!
