Using the Digital Sign In/Out App

A quick guide on how to use the Digital Sign In/Out Device

The Digital Sign In/Out (DSI) feature allows students to sign in late or sign out early when a parent or guardian has submitted a note and the request has been approved by staff.

When DSI is used together with Attendance Form Management, it is important that students follow the established DSI procedure. This helps ensure attendance data is accurate and up to date.

When a student signs in or out using the DSI device, the system automatically sends an alert to the parent or guardian with the student’s arrival or departure time.

Signing In Late

To sign in late, the student should:

  1. Tap Late.
  2. Select their year, class, and name.
  3. Tap Submit.

If a late note has already been submitted by the parent or guardian, they will receive an alert confirming that the student has arrived at school.

If no late note has been submitted, the parent or guardian will be notified of the student’s lateness and will receive a request to submit a late note.


Signing Out Early

To sign out early, the student should:

  1. Tap Leaving.
  2. Select their year, class, and name.
  3. Tap Submit.

Students can only successfully sign out using the tablet if a Permission to Leave note has already been submitted by a parent or guardian.

If no Permission to Leave note has been submitted, a pop-up message will appear instructing the student to go to the office.


Returning to School

If a student returns to school on the same day after signing out, they should use the Returning option.

To sign back in, the student should:

  1. Tap Returning.
  2. Select their year, class, and name.
  3. Tap Submit.
