There are many ideas in the idea bank asking for customizable attendance types, but in almost all of the comments of those ideas, at least one person (and almost always more than one) is asking for an Early Dismissal type. This is a basic requirement of every K-12 school in existence. Please add this attendance type ASAP. This has been kicking around the idea bank for nearly nine years at this point and the need remains.
This is an attendance safety issue. Absolute upvote. Also need to be able to factor for early dismissal in a daily attendance report showing who is on premises.
