  1. Add New CDE Attendance Recovery to Aeries to be reported to CALPADS

    I am currently on a CDE webinar and they are discussing a new way to have attendance recovery which must be tracked separately from Reg School Day ADA and Saturday School. It was also stated that this would be reported to CALPADS to contribute to an Alternate Absenteeism Rate and be included in P2/Annual Attendance reporting. How will Aeries build this to keep it separate from Saturday School and allow for accounting for multiple days to make up the daily minute allowance? This Attendance Recovery will also be capped at 10 days per student. Can Aeries also include that when…

    Hello, I wanted to let you know that the following development was completed as part of the changes for Attendance Recovery and shipped on 6/24/2025.


    Here are the relevant revision notes:


    New Year Rollover: 

    • For California districts, data in the following tables will roll over for records with start dates on or after July: Supp Att Calendar (ATC), Supp Att Assignments (ATA), Supp Att Data (ATD).


    School Info: 

    • Configurations > District Settings:
    • A new district setting titled “Supplemental Attendance Program Codes for Attendance Recovery” is now available. Users with Edit rights can identify which Supplemental Attendance Program (ATP.TY) codes are used for this program type. See District Settings.
    • A new district setting titled “Expanded Learning Programs” is now available. Users with Edit rights can identify which Supplemental Attendance Program (ATP.TY) codes are used for this program type. See District Settings.



  2. CA only - Include IS Complete in Days Present under Attendance summary bubble on Student Attendance page

    In CA only, include the Days Independent Study complete (ABS.IS) numbers into Days Present and Att Percentage in the Attendance Summary bubble on the Student Attendance page. This change will not impact Attendance History page or the STAS extract.

  3. Gain and Loss Report

    When the school type is Flex-Daily & Primary Class Tracking is enabled. Not all student names appear on the report, but the gain/loss totals are accurate.
    Workaround: Remove future dates and from section staff members.

  4. Create a Management page for the Student Attendance Percentage by Date Settings

    Currently, the Attendance Percentage by Date Settings only allows you to update the date range one student at a time or by using a change query.

    To allow the sites the flexibility to use these amazing Attendance pages an update all students button or something similar for sites to use, would be useful.

    Our sites would like to use these by week, month, and not always from the beginning of the year to a specific date.
    I currently have a request to change the dates every month. They want to see the data month to month to see if students…

  5. Saturday School Makeup Summary/Visibility

    As part of Attendance Recovery (AR) implementation, please also have Saturday School Make up codes be visible with number of day of completed. This will help staff decide which attendance absence to utilize. It's also important to have the value (field) be queriable. Thank you.

  6. Include an absence percentage in Attendance Percentage by Date Range (APDR) table

    Currently, the APDR page shows the students' percentage of attending school. Adding the percentage the student has not attended would be beneficial in regards to Chronic Absenteeism, CALPADS EOY report 14.1, which focuses on the percentage of days missed or, at the very least, allow query to calculate it using the APDR.APR. Currently, it does not.

    Aeries Analytics does have the Chronic report, but that only focuses on 10% or more and does not break it down as needed in the EOY report 14.1. If we create our own Analytics dashboard (as I have), it does not include inactive students.…

  7. Classroom Attendance: Add Button to send automated "Missing Attendance" email to teacher

    On the classroom attendance page , if there would be a section/button next to the teachers names to send a notification that there attendance is missing or not complete. They could get an email sent to them. it would avoid having to reach out and disrupt classroom time.

  8. Include a Summary Count of Attendance Note Code usage on Attendance Page

    Add a summary count of Attendance Note code usage - similar to the AL code counts on this page already.

    This would be useful for attendance clerks to quickly see how often a particular code has been used for a student.
    Specifically, parents are allowed up to 10 excused absences before a doctor's note is required. Any instances in which a doctors note is provided do not count against that 10 allowance. Having the summary count would allow for quick check if the allowance of 10 excused (non-physician noted) has been exhausted.

  9. Ability to change the attendance screen

    Would like the ability to move the attendance codes to the right of the screen instead of below attendance so we can get a quick snapshot of the attendance codes. We have a certain number of some of the codes that are allowed, it would be great to be able to see that quicker than having to scroll down to see it. Will help to avoid going over the capped number of say illnesses that we have set.

  10. Independent Study Complete

    Add option for Independent Study Agreement "Complete" . The current options does not allow the attendance clerk to mark what student they have completed and updated in aeries in attendance/signatures, etc. Any students with a contract stay in a "activated" or "pending" status.

    Also would like the ability to delete an agreement if added to an incorrect student in error

  12. Temporary Accounts for short term (day-to-day) substitutes.

    Temporary Aeries accounts are used for short term substitutes at a few of the sites within our District. It would be helpful to allow the name of the substitute to be entered and visible on the Temporary Aeries Account Information sheet that is generated when the account is created and also the Attendance log report by Attendance Day for tracking purposes. Would it be possible to add a notes section that could be visible on these reports?

  13. Attendance by photo

    Put a line between students on attendance by photo, not a line over A/T. Visually it's very messy and causes errors.

  14. Removing SSA tag from Attendance by Photo

    Currently, a student's SSA status tag is displayed on the Attendance by Photo page. Teachers project seating charts in the classroom to indicate where students should sit, but having the SSA tag on the student's photo reveals confidential information and leads students to question its meaning. The SSA status tag is already accessible in Student Search and the Class Attendance page which is only viewable by the teachers and staff.

    Can the SSA label be removed from the Attendance by Photo page? This would allow teachers to continue using this feature in Aeries without disclosing a student's SSA status.

  15. Add option to remove student id numbers from class rosters

    When printing the class roster for a substitute there is currently no option to remove the student id from the table. In the event a school uses the student's id number as their Aeries password, this would pose a security risk if another student was able to get their hands on this sheet.

  16. Update Look of Flex Attendance Calendar

    Our alternative high school uses flex scheduling AND positive attendance. Tuesdays and Thursdays are focused strictly on credit recovery, while core classes are taught on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

    Our attendance calendar is SUPER confusing to read due to the table headers. The greyed out boxes do not help that much. It would be nice if the attendance calendar looked exactly like a regular attendance calendar OR had all MWF classes on the left and TTH on the right. We pull a lot of attendance reports, especially since many of our students have to report to SARB (Student Attendance Review…

  17. Attendance By seating chart - Improve UI feedback of the click

    In the attendance by seating chart functionality the click selection feed back may benefit from slight improvement. When hovering over the selection the choice highlights in a light green. When clicked it changes to only a slightly darker shade of green. This slight shade difference, in combination with the delay in clicking and choice selection indication, causes confusion to the end user. Perhaps a different color or maybe just outlined circle when hovering would contrast more prominently with the filled in or darker shaded green after click/selection. We have noticed end users clicking multiple times, often selecting and then de-selecting…

  18. Attendance Infograph for Parents

    Create an attendance notification that can be sent to parents via text/email. The notification should contain the number of days the student has missed and a chart of absence thresholds. It should also contain the school phone number.

  19. Adding LNC lunch table options by site

    The LNC table cannot be limited to certain codes for certain schools at this time. You can add the new codes to the Code Table, but they will show for all schools. We would like to have the flexibility to add options by school site.

  20. Attendance by Photo Creation Prior to New Term

    Be able to create Attendance by Photo for each period before the term starts. This would help teachers to organize their seating charts for the first day of school, or a new term.
