Taking Attendance

Attendance must be taken during the first 10 minutes of class. To take attendance in Veracross, log into the Faculty Portal. In your classes list, you'll see a link for attendance

The icon next to "Attendance" will show a color to tell you:

Red: Attendance has not been taken yet for this class.
Green: Attendance has been taken and saved for this class.
Grey: Attendance is not required for this class, likely because it does not meet today.

Click on "Attendance" to enter the class attendance screen.

Here, you have two steps to complete attendance:

1) Mark Absent Students. By default, all students are set to "present." Select "absent" for the appropriate students. All other entries (such as Tardy or School Event) will be entered by the front office, and will appear in the "Other Notes" column. Please only choose Present or Absent based on whether the student is physically present in the room at the beginning of class.

2) Save Class Attendance. Once the attendance is entered, click "Save Class Attendance" to complete the process. You will see confirmation that the attendance is saved, and you may move on!
