## Mark your student as present

You can specify the duration each student attended the class by marking the student present, as explained previously, and then choosing the duration.![](https://cdn.document360.io/7a3c00d9-daf1-4451-a1a0-1e6ab8f34fa6/Images/Documentation/Present%20Student.jpg)

## Mark your student as absent

If a student has an excuse for being absent, you can mark him/her as absent, as explained previously, check the **Absence Notified** box, and add notes.![](https://cdn.document360.io/7a3c00d9-daf1-4451-a1a0-1e6ab8f34fa6/Images/Documentation/Absent%20Student.jpg)

In case your student is absent for multiple classes, instead of marking each session as absent manually, you can click on **Extended Absence**, as illustrated below, then choose the start and end date and specify the reason.![](https://cdn.document360.io/7a3c00d9-daf1-4451-a1a0-1e6ab8f34fa6/Images/Documentation/Extend%20Absence.jpg)![](https://cdn.document360.io/7a3c00d9-daf1-4451-a1a0-1e6ab8f34fa6/Images/Documentation/Extend%20Absence%202.jpg)
