School attendance & campus safety

Attendance happens at the door — not on paper.

One scan marks a student present, tardy, or absent, notifies a parent, and updates your student information system in real time. Built for classrooms, campuses, and whole districts.

The software

One system, every spot a student gets counted.

Start with the Swipe Basic package or run the full suite across entrances, classrooms, hallways, and the cafeteria.

Dual-scan entry capture

Students scan in at the entrance and the data flows straight to your SIS. Two lanes per cart process about 500 students in under 15 minutes, with built-in wireless and a free phone barcode app.

DUAL SCAN →

Classroom & teacher module

Entirely web-based — nothing to install on teacher PCs. Attendance is pre-filled, so teachers just verify each period while Swipe flags class-cuts and tardies.

CLASSROOM SCANNING →

Hall pass & hallway management

Scan students leaving for the restroom, nurse, or counselor. Each location carries a time limit, and daily reports flag anyone who runs over — with a student-facing hall pass app.

HALLWAY MANAGEMENT →
🍽

Cafeteria screening

Validate each student’s lunch period right at the cafeteria entrance to cut class-cutting and keep the line moving.

CAFETERIA SCREENING →
👤

Visitor management

A driver’s-license scanner captures each visitor’s name and photo, runs a National Sex Offender Registry check, and supports custom alerts for restraining orders or pickup instructions — with a self-service kiosk option.

VISITOR SYSTEM →

Tardiness & consequences

Print tardy passes that show each student’s unexcused-tardy count, and set unlimited consequence rules that print automatically when a student hits the trigger point. Everything syncs to your SIS.

How a swipe works

From the reader to the record in seconds.

STEP 01

Scan

A student taps an ID badge, barcode, or phone at a cart, kiosk, or classroom device.

STEP 02

Verify

Swipe confirms identity and marks the status — present, tardy, or absent — instantly.

STEP 03

Notify

Parents get a free email or text on arrival, and can see tardies and absences in the app.

STEP 04

Record

Every entry logs automatically and syncs to your student information system — audit-ready.
