Query for unexcused absences in a selected time frame (Recent, Current Month, etc) or delineate a time frame in the query as in the example below.

query
  • Is Absent=Y
  • Is Excused=N
  • Choose to include a date range or use the Search based on choices to filter to Recent Attendance (Usually the last 90 days), Current Month, Current School Year, Current week, or Today.
  • Choose to save this query for future use.
