STM offers K-12 schools a proven solution for improved security and student records accountability. CAASS, the Comprehensive Attendance, Administration, and Security System, is a suite of powerful software modules that work together in today’s networked environment.
Students attending a CAASS school swipe an identification card through a reader as they enter the building. The system quickly checks the validity of the card and flashes the student’s name and picture on the screen. Once identified, students without ID cards are manually entered into the system and a temporary ID card with a photo prints for the students immediately. Data from CAASS schools shows that better control at the school entrance helps reduce the opportunity for intruders or other non-students to enter the building. Tardy students immediately receive automated late passes upon entry.
In addition to careful screening, CAASS records the exact time of entry so users can quickly determine if a student is in school.
Period-by-period attendance verification provides 100% attendance accuracy. Easily accessed reports help monitor attendance daily, weekly or monthly, allowing school administrators to identify trends and make better decisions. |
