I am a high school teacher who was not happy with the attendance apps available so I've spent the past 6 months learning how to make an app. I welcome any feedback or suggestions as I am continuously improving the app. The app is designed around the US school year/system but I've tried to be flexible in making it work internationally. If you have any suggestions that would make it work better for your system let me know and I'll see if I can incorporate it into the app.
