Create an event for an extracurricular program

Create an event for an extracurricular program. You can indicate whether a program administrator should take attendance for it.

Example: A concert or practice session could be set up as an event for a musical extracurricular program. A game, match, or invitational could be events for a sports program.

Note: Your district's or school's preference determines whether the event appears on the student's calendar in the Student and Family portals, and whether the student's name appears on the event's attendance roster.
