Why do I need my student's ID number
Did you know the THS attendance hotline often receives over a 100 messages a day?
Even more heading into a holiday break or 3 day weekend!
Know your Student's ID Number
The best and easiest way for us to find your student in our system is their student ID number.
This is a 6 digit number that can be found:
- In ParentVUE under "Student Info"
- On a report card
- By asking your student
Write it down, save it in your phone or memorize it, and then always reference it when calling in an absence.
Why the ID Number is important
It can be difficult to find a student in our system without an ID number for a number of reasons:
- Unique spelling of names. If your student has a unique name or spelling, don't assume we know how to spell it. If you don't have the ID number, please spell any names with unique spellings.
- A very busy and loud reception area makes it difficult to hear messages.
- Calls from cell phones with poor reception makes it difficult to hear and understand the message.
- With 1800 students, we have numerous students with the same or similar names.
Providing your student's ID number and leaving the perfect voicemail message ensures that your student's attendance will be updated in a timely manner.
