Taking attendance

The Attendance tab records who showed up to practice, day by day, against your practice schedule.

Recording a day

1. Pick the date. Scheduled practice days are ready to record.
2. Athletes group by level. Expand a level and tap Present, Absent, Late, or Left Early on each gymnast — tap the same status again to clear it.
3. Mark All Present handles a whole level in one tap; then just fix the exceptions.

Days off the schedule

• Add attendance day creates a one-off recordable day outside the normal schedule — a makeup practice, a holiday clinic.
• Cancel today skips a scheduled day (gym closed, snow day). Cancelled days show a strip with Restore in case of a mistake.

The fairness rule

Only days you actually record count toward attendance percentages. If a coach skips recording a day, that day simply doesn't exist for the math — an untouched day never penalizes anyone.

Absences reach further than attendance

Marking someone absent doesn't only move their attendance number. By default it also excuses that day's assignments — the work drops out of their completion stats instead of counting as unfinished, and their family sees "Excused — absent" rather than a checklist they never had a chance to do.

Two consequences worth having in mind while you record:

• Late and left early don't excuse anything. Only absent does.
• Order doesn't matter. Take attendance at the end of practice, or fix it three days later — the assignment stats catch up on their own.

Owners can switch this off under Settings → Stat Controls, or override it on a single assignment card. See Tracking progress.
