Administrators, teachers, substitutes, and parents each get a purpose-built experience designed around their daily workflow. No one sees what they don't need. Everyone gets exactly what they do.
For Administrators
You became an administrator to lead a school, not to spend every morning juggling coverage calls. Here's how Safer Attendance gives you that time back.
No more 6 AM phone chains when a teacher calls out.
Auto-assign picks the next teacher in your department rotation based on fairness rules you set. By the time you walk in, coverage is handled.
No more walkie-talkie checks or hallway guesses.
The real-time accountability dashboard shows exactly which students and teachers are checked in, which rooms are covered, and who is unaccounted for.
No more surprise substitute invoices at month-end.
See daily, weekly, and monthly coverage costs as they happen. Track year-to-date budget utilization so you can forecast accurately.
No more fumbling through PA systems or group texts.
One click sends lockdown, evacuation, fire, or weather alerts to every device in the building. Send all-clear when the situation resolves.
No more weeks of manual data entry.
CSV imports with auto-column-mapping bring in your staff, students, parents, classes, schedules, and enrollments. Validation catches errors before they hit your database.
No more "Why do I always get the coverage?" complaints.
The system tracks days since last assignment and monthly hours for every teacher. Coverage is distributed by department rotation, and staff can see it's fair.
For Teachers
Requesting time off shouldn't mean a stack of forms and guilt about who's covering your classes. Here's what changes.
No more tracking down coverage yourself before you can take a day.
Submit your request with dates and reason. Once approved, the system creates coverage requests for every affected period automatically.
No more digging through emails or binders for your schedule.
Your personal dashboard shows today's blocks, free periods, and any coverage assignments you've picked up - synced with what administration sees.
No more being voluntold for coverage during your prep.
See available coverage opportunities during your free blocks. Accept the ones that work for you. The rotation system ensures the load is shared fairly across your department.
No more sticky notes passed between mailboxes.
When you cover a class, you can enter grades and notes directly into the system. The regular teacher and administration see them immediately.
No more wondering what happened while you were away.
View your class rosters, attendance records, and any notes or grades entered by substitutes who covered your classes.
No more manually counting absences for report cards.
Download CSV attendance reports for your classes anytime. Filter by date range, period, or student for parent conferences and grading.
For Substitutes
No more waiting by the phone hoping for a call. No more guessing what you'll earn. Your substitute portal puts you in control of your schedule and career.
No more last-minute phone calls at 5:30 AM.
See all available coverage opportunities in one place - school, class, subject, grade, and time. Accept the ones that fit your schedule with one tap.
No more wondering if your paycheck is right.
Your earnings dashboard shows compensation for every assignment - daily, weekly, monthly, and year-to-date. Your data is private and visible only to you.
No more scattered references and lost paperwork.
Upload certifications, background checks, TB tests, and your resume in one place. Performance metrics track your assignments, and expiration warnings keep you compliant.
No more walking into a classroom blind.
View the class roster, schedule, and any notes from the regular teacher before you arrive. Enter grades and attendance directly during your assignment.
No more explaining when you are and aren't free.
Mark your available days and times on the calendar. Schools only see you as available when you say you are - no awkward declines needed.
No more filling out the same application at every district.
Your profile, documents, and certifications travel with you. Apply to new schools with your complete professional package already assembled.
For Parents
You shouldn't have to wonder whether your child made it to class. The parent portal keeps you in the loop without calling the front office.
No more calling the office to check if your child is in school.
See whether your child is marked present, absent, late, or dismissed for every period of the day - updated as it happens.
No more handwritten notes stuffed in backpacks.
Report absences, late arrivals, and early dismissals from your phone. The school gets it instantly and your child's attendance record updates automatically.
No more "What class do you have 3rd period?" conversations.
See every class, teacher, room number, and time block for each of your children. Know exactly where they should be throughout the day.
No more hearing about school emergencies from the news.
When the school broadcasts a lockdown, evacuation, or weather event, you get the alert in real time - plus the all-clear when it resolves.
No more vague "your child was absent today" messages.
See attendance for each individual period. Know if your child missed just one class or the whole day, and whether a substitute was teaching.
No more logging into separate portals for each kid.
If you have multiple children at the school, view all their schedules, attendance, and teacher information from a single dashboard.
These features work across every portal - keeping everyone safe and accounted for, every period of the day.
Students and teachers scan in and out of every room. The dashboard updates in real time so you always know who is where - during class, during emergencies, during fire drills.
Lockdowns, fires, evacuations, active threats, weather events, medical emergencies. One click reaches every device in the building and every parent in the district. All-clear follows when resolved.
Teachers see their classes. Parents see their children. Substitutes see their earnings and no one else's. Every query is scoped by school and district. No data leaks between roles.
One click. No passwords to remember. Teachers, substitutes, and parents log in instantly using their existing Clever credentials.
Staff and parents already have Clever accounts through your district. One click gets them into SaferAttendance with zero password resets.
Your IT department enables SaferAttendance in the Clever dashboard. Roles sync automatically. Offboarded staff lose access instantly.
New teachers? New parents? They show up in SaferAttendance automatically with the right role, school, and permissions. No manual setup.
