Say Goodbye to Chaos, Hello to Simplicity


Imagine a typical morning at your school: The front office is bustling, phones ringing off the hook, and students lining up to check-in late. Registrars scramble to decipher handwritten tardy notes, manually entering each student's information into PowerSchool—hours wasted every single day.

We saw your frustration, and we've done something about it. Introducing Circool’s groundbreaking Student Check-in module, the ultimate solution to tardy tracking chaos, now seamlessly integrated with PowerSchool SIS.


How It Works—Lightning Fast and Effortless

Parents or students check in with their Circool QR code or with a student's name. Within 15 seconds, check-in is complete.

Student tardies populate directly onto the live Circool dashboard. With just a few clicks, Registrars review and bulk-process tardies directly into PowerSchool—marking students tardy, absent, or present, and distinguishing clearly between excused and unexcused absences.

Circool is the ONLY solution that automates this entire process, effortlessly syncing precise attendance data with PowerSchool. No other platform delivers this level of streamlined efficiency and accuracy.

Maximize Your Funding with Accurate Attendance

Accurate attendance records aren’t just a nice-to-have—they directly impact critical school funding under state and federal guidelines like Average Daily Attendance (ADA) and the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). Circool’s Student Check-in ensures every tardy record is accurate and timely, protecting your school's essential funding streams.


Jason Routson, Circool CEO, expresses his enthusiasm:

“We're genuinely thrilled to introduce our new Student Check-in module.
