Welcome to another 60-Second Power-Up.
Life brings all sorts of fun and not-so-fun things our way.
With Skyward, it's really easy to submit an absence request for your child, whether it's for an unexpected trip to the doctor or, preferably, a planned family vacation to the beach.
To get started, open the main menu and tap on Attendance. Then select Add Absence Request near the top of the screen.
Your child's name, school, and the current date will be entered automatically, but you can change the date to request a future absence.
If you're not requesting an entire day, tap the green All Day toggle on the right to switch All Day from Yes to No. Then enter the start and end times.
Next, type the reason for your child's absence and add any additional comments.
If you'd like to request the same absence for multiple children, you're almost done!
Just use the Yes/No buttons on the bottom right to duplicate the request.
It's as easy as that!
Check out the other 60-Second Power-Ups and become even more Skyward-savvy.
