Attendance Tab

You can now easily see days absent in previous years by going to Attendance Info and clicking on the previous years.  You will need to click on elementary to see elementary attendance, and middle school attendance to see middle school. This is helpful to see what percentage of school a student has missed in the past.

Solution Tree PLC Conference
As we continue our work with PLCs we are excited to share that Solution Tree is hosting a PLC Conference in Sacramento on June 19th-21st.  Derk has offered to pay for one representative from each site.  Please fill out this form so that we are able to register the representative you'd like to send from your site. This could be you or a different staff member.  

If you'd like to send more staff members, this would be a site expense to improve your PLC development and registration can be completed at the site level.  Please fill out the form by Tuesday, April 11th so that we are able to register before seats sell out!
