"I don't think you can look a parent in the eye and say 'we are doing everything we can' if you don't have [Orah] on your campus. There is no better way to keep track of students on-and-off campus in our modern age."
Andrew Wright

Mark Attendance, fast

Whatever the situation, with Orah Roll Checks you can take attendance from anywhere.

Mark the roll from the Orah app on your smartphone or desktop, or using the Orah Roll Checks Chrome Extension. Collaborate on a school-wide roll check with multiple staff members, allow substitute teachers to take the roll on your behalf or set up an automated roll to capture attendance as students sign in to specific locations.

You can set certain Pass Types like 'Absences' to automatically update in the system–so that teachers are aware in real-time that a student is not expected in class.

For Pass Types that require approval, you can manage these requests in one place and request additional information as needed.
