Coming this fall to will be a new “Swipe” based system for tracking attendance. Using a new ID card, students will be required to check into school upon arrival, and at various places during the day such as at the school nurse’s office, guidance, or the library.
Plans for the program were presented to the Board of Education and was met positively. The primary aim of the tracking is to reduce incidences of students cutting classes, and using the technology to better administer information about absences.
