KiNVO by Kinvolved

Kinvolved’s mobile and web app, KiNVO, brings simple attendance data to life. With KiNVO, schools see smart attendance data and can effectively engage families through two-way text messaging.
Features include:

Attendance:
- Record attendance by swiping students names left or right, marking them absent or late
- Record reasons for absenteeism and minutes late
- Save your attendance record and/or send a text message, email, or phone call to parents about absenteeism/lateness in multiple languages
- Customize the message you send to parents about absenteeism or lateness

Communication:
- Real-time, two-way translation of all messages enables teachers and parents to communicate regardless of parent language preference
- View your classroom or school-wide directory of students with parent contact information (phone numbers, emails, language preference, role)
- Mass message parent contacts, or send individual messages to parent contacts, receive replies from parents within the app (Note: Your personal phone number or email address is never shared by KiNVO by Kinvolved. When a parent contact receives a message from KiNVO it is from a KiNVO phone number or email address.)
- Send customized, pre-written templates
- Tag message topics as positive or needs improvement
