An Overview of Absentees in your EdSmart Platform

Overview

EdSmart’s Absentee feature is your tool to automate and streamline the administration of absence notifications and responses between schools and Parents/Guardians daily.

EdSmart automatically reads absentees from your Student Management System and sends communications to parents and guardians of absent students daily via email and/or text message (SMS).

This communication allows Parents and Guardians to submit a reason for each absence. 

Please have a look at the Central Notification Schedule Knowledge Base Article for more information.

Returned Absentee Slips can be viewed in the EdSmart platform within a student’s record.
