Marking Attendance in Under a Minute: The Weekly Roster Ritual

If Attendance Takes Ten Minutes, It Won't Happen

Trainers will skip logging when dogs are circling and owners are chatting. UI must be grid-fast: session row, roster column, tap status, done.

Present, absent, late, excused, makeup — each means something for make-up policy and reporting. Pick definitions and stick to them.

Attendance history feeds owner reports and facility KPIs: dropout patterns, which week attrition spikes.

Open cohort → this week's session → mark all → optional note on absences → start class. Under sixty seconds at eight dogs.

Week four Thursday. Two absences marked excused with makeup flag. Desk books make-up into Saturday overflow cohort per policy.
