Attendance+ starts where the record starts. Daily attendance syncs from PowerSchool, Infinite Campus, or a CSV feed over automated SFTP, and the connectors being built for Aeries pull attendance alerts straight from the SIS. On the family side, a parent reports an absence from the app and the office confirms it from a queue, so the reason is on file before the auto-dialer would have called. Same-day absence notices go out on the district's own schedule, in the family's language.
Four state rule packs ship built in, California, Texas, Washington, and New York, each coded to that state's actual thresholds and windows rather than a generic three-step template; your counsel reviews and acknowledges the pack's language before it activates. Every night Attendance+ detects who crossed a step and drafts the letter. Staff approve one at a time or in a batch. Portal and email deliver immediately; print and certified mail go through a real vendor integration with delivery tracking that flows back on its own. Every letter, case, and outreach exports as an audit-ready package.
Every night the notice ladder checks who crossed a step in your state's rule pack and drafts the letter. Staff approve singly or in a batch; portal and email go now, print and certified mail go to a vendor with tracking, and a mailed letter waits for a certified translation. Click to approve.
A compliance letter is never mailed in a translation nobody has verified. Attendance+ drafts the translation by machine, a human reviews and certifies it, and only a certified translation can queue for print. Digital delivery may use a clearly labelled machine draft so the family hears today; the mailed copy waits for certification. Languages default to your district's top guardian languages, and a certified translation is reused every time the same step fires.
A machine draft moves to human review, then certification, before it can be queued for mail. Digital delivery can use an uncertified draft, clearly labeled; mail cannot, until it's certified.
When a family texts back sick, appointment, transportation, or something else, the reply correlates to the exact notice it answers and lands inside the Thrive record next to the risk score. A quick-reply reason auto-excuses the day when it should. A reply that discloses a housing, safety, or health-crisis need opens a case and pages a counselor. And the numbers live where administrators already look: an absence-rate heatmap with a per-student breakdown, an ADA funding estimate for planning, and a period-by-period report, all sections of the Dashboards Attendance lens. Guardians see their own child only.
A guardian's SMS reply correlates to the exact outreach it answers, not just the most recent thread, and a reason auto-applies to the open absence. Try both tabs.
