\"\" > Attendance > Student Attendance<\/p>\n

Quick Mark<\/strong> is used to mark the attendance of a large number of students in a single step. Only the absentees are added; every other student in the selected classes is marked Present<\/strong> when the attendance is saved. Multiple classes can be selected together, which makes it useful for marking attendance at the assembly or at the start of the day.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Go to Student Attendance<\/strong> and select Quick Mark<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  2. Select the Class<\/strong>. More than one class can be selected.<\/li>\n
  3. Select the Section<\/strong>, or select All<\/strong> to include every section of the selected classes.<\/li>\n
  4. Select the Attendance Date<\/strong>. The total number of students covered by the selection is displayed as students in scope<\/strong> above the list.
