# Review attendance with classroom staff

Category: Daily operations

Before you start: confirm the correct school and role. Use approved source records; perform live changes only within your assigned authority.

Attendance must match the child's real classroom status.

1. Open your classroom roster.
2. Select the child or attendance action.
3. Mark the correct status: present, absent, sick, vacation, checked in, or checked out.
4. Save the update.
5. Confirm the child card or attendance list reflects the change.
6. Read displayed times in the school's local timezone and report any time that appears shifted or grouped under the wrong school day.

Stop and ask a director before changing attendance for a child who is not assigned to your classroom.

## Verify the result

Check the correct day, child and classroom; verify the resulting status.

## If something goes wrong

This is the teacher procedure for director oversight. Never invent attendance times. Wait for pending actions; reopen the record before retrying an uncertain save or send.
