AutoTardy® for PowerSchool

Fully integrated attendance solution that automates late arrivals, early dismissals, security and event tracking—writing DIRECTLY to PowerSchool in real-time.

Eliminate Tardy Lines. Automate Everything.

Every school day begins with a race against the clock. Students arrive at different times, front offices become crowded, and staff work quickly to process late arrivals while maintaining accurate attendance records.

AutoTardy automates the entire tardy process by recording tardies directly in PowerSchool, printing passes in as little as 2.6 seconds, and providing administrators with real-time visibility into student arrivals.

Students can identify themselves using a finger scan, ID card, PIN, barcode, or student lookup, eliminating manual data entry and reducing morning congestion.

For schools that need even greater flexibility, AutoTardy Plus builds on these capabilities with self-service kiosk options, student movement tracking, event management, user-level security controls, and expanded reporting.

The result is a comprehensive student movement and attendance management solution that helps schools improve efficiency, strengthen accountability, and gain deeper operational insights throughout the school day.
