This year in remote learning, we will be taking attendance. Teachers will take attendance during morning meeting time and submit that to the office. We know that there will be times when students are not able to access online at the time of morning meetings, so please work with your teacher to let them know you were able to access online activities at some point during the day.
What are my options for reporting an absence for my student(s)?
Please call the Werner Elementary Attendance Line: 970-488-5551
Leave your name, number, student’s name and ID, date of absence and reason.
This voicemail feature is available 24hrs.
There is also a new feature within ParentVUE to report an absence. You do not need to use both. The new feature in ParentVUE is just another option available to you.
How will attendance in ParentVUE (PVUE) work?
Parents can submit attendance for a single date or range of dates by clicking on ‘Report Absence’ from the web-based home screen or app on the attendance screen. To ensure that the attendance mark is processed, you must enter a reason in the Note field.
If a student is not going to be logged in and/or attending school for a day or series of days, in any phase of instruction, the parent has the ability to document this absence in PVUE instead of making a call and leaving a voicemail on the attendance line. Once saved in PVUE, the attendance mark will still be reviewed by the attendance clerk and will show up for the teacher.
As a parent, what am I expected to do if I want to use ParentVUE for reporting the absence?
· Log in to ParentVUE
· Click on the student for which you are entering attendance for
· Select ‘report absence’
· Set attendance mark of ‘A – Absent’ or ‘I – Illness’
· Add a note (absences entered without a note are subject to being unexcused)
· Click Save
· Note: please know that schools may take up to 24 hours to process absences and future absences will not be visible in ParentVUE until the date of the absence.
