Your check-in / check-out kiosk now updates period attendance in real time. When a student signs out mid-day, the class in session is marked Leaving Early (or your school's configured code), and the rest of the day can auto-mark as Absent. When that student returns, the record reconciles itself: the in-session class flips to Late, and any missed periods in between are filled in cleanly.

What's new

Real-time mid-day check-out. Current period reflects the student's status the moment they sign out.

Automatic reconciliation on return. The system recognizes a student coming back and adjusts the record without anyone touching the grid.

Teacher entries always win. The kiosk only updates rows it created. Manual teacher entries stay untouched, so the classroom remains the source of truth.

Configurable per school. Leaving Early, Absent, and Late codes come from your existing widget settings. Your wording, your policies.

Every sign-in mode supported. Username and password, student ID, and PIN-only kiosks all run the same integrated flow.

Full audit trail. Every automatic change is logged for administrator review.

Why it matters

Emergency rosters reflect who is actually on campus right now. Teachers see accurate period attendance the moment a student walks back in. Front-desk staff and faculty stay aligned without extra steps, and your school keeps full control over the codes applied in every scenario.

Available now to all PCR Educator schools using the check-in / check-out kiosk. Your account team can walk you through the configuration options whenever you're ready.
