Zoom In and Out on Your Schedule

The Snapshot

You can now zoom in on your schedule to give short classes, like a five-minute Advisory, more room on screen. Every class is easy to spot and tap.

What's New

We added small zoom controls to the top-right corner wherever you can view a schedule. Zoom in to stretch out the hours, and brief periods get more space. You'll find the controls in My Schedule and in the calendars in Daily Reconciliation and on Student Profiles.

Why It Matters

Quick check-ins like an 8:00am Advisory roll are over in minutes and usually hard to see on the schedule. Now teachers can zoom in, find the roll straight away and open it without friction at the start of the day.

Instructions:

  1. Open My Schedule, Daily Reconciliation or Student Profile Schedules

  2. Use the zoom controls in the top-right corner to zoom in until your short classes are easy to see

Give it a try tomorrow morning. Questions? Reach out to your CSM.

Complete Overdue Rolls From Any Past Date

The Snapshot

Attendance Admins can now complete overdue rolls from any past date, right from Daily Reconciliation. Pick a date, open the roll, and wrap it up in a few clicks.

What's New

Choose any date on Daily Reconciliation, open an overdue roll that's not started or still in progress, mark attendance, and complete it, no matter how long ago the class took place. Your "up to X days ago" limit in Attendance Settings works just as it always has on My Schedule, and we're adding a short note to that setting so it's clear where the limit applies.

To complete an overdue roll from any past date from Daily Reconciliation, staff need all three of these permissions turned on: Attendance Admin, Mark Rolls and Access other staff schedules.

Why It Matters

Every roll can get its attendance recorded, so your records stay complete. Teachers still work within your day limit on My Schedule, which means completing older rolls stays with the admins you choose.

Next Steps

  1. Give the right people access. Under Admin Console > Staff, tick Attendance Admin, Mark Rolls and Access other staff schedules, either on a role or for an individual. Staff need all three.

  2. Open Attendance > Daily Reconciliation

  3. Open Overdue Rolls and pick the date you want to review

  4. Open the roll, mark the students and select Complete Roll

See and Edit Automatic Rolls In Progress

Demo:

The Snapshot

You can now see automatic rolls while they're still in progress, and edit a student's attendance on the spot. You'll find them in Group records and in the My Students view on your Homeboard.

What's New

Automatic rolls that are currently running now show up in Group records and in My Students on the Homeboard. Open one to see how the roll is going for each student. If a student's attendance needs a change, you can edit it right there, without waiting for the roll to finish.

Why It Matters

A student who's slipping out of routine is easier to help early. Seeing automatic rolls as they happen lets you spot who's missing and step in that day, while there's still time to check in. Fixing a student's attendance mid-roll keeps your records accurate from the start.

Next Steps

  1. Open a Group record, or go to My Students on your Homeboard

  2. Find the automatic roll that's in progress

  3. Open it to see each student's status

  4. Edit a student's attendance if it needs changing, then save
    Give it a try on your next automatic roll, and reach out to your CSM with any questions.
