The Absentee Module is your tool to automate and streamline the administration of absence notifications and responses between parents on a daily basis.
Automated Handling of Absentees
The Absentee Module reads absentees automatically from your Student Management System and sends communications to parents of absent students each morning via email (and, optionally, SMS). Capture the reason for absence and anything else you need. Returned forms are available within a student’s record, as with all other EdSmart forms.
Tracking and Reminders
Track the delivery, opening and response rates for messages, and access an up-to-date, complete history of student absences whenever you need to. Schedule absentee notification times and schedule recurring reminders to ensure parents respond.
Requirements to implement Absentee Slips
EdSmart needs to be able to read a list of students with unexplained absences, either via reading from a SQL view on your database or an API.
