Afield RollCall is attendance built by a teacher who actually takes it — every morning, and on every field trip. **WHO'S HERE. WHO'S NOT. ONE GLANCE.** Tap students present or missing and watch the counts update at the top of your board. Big, readable cards. No spreadsheets to squint at, no paper to lose. **NEW: CLASS MODE** RollCall now handles your everyday classroom, not just trip days. • Unlimited class boards — every period, homeroom, study hall, and club in one app • Group students your way: by section, by table, by row, by bus — you choose • Set All marks a whole group in one tap **SEATING CHARTS** See your room the way you actually arrange it. • Straight rows for classrooms • Curved arcs for ensembles — orchestras, bands, and choirs get true concert seating • Take attendance right from the chart: your empty seat IS your missing student • Works on iPad, and on iPhone too — just turn your phone sideways **FIELD TRIPS, HANDLED** The part RollCall was born for. • Organize your trip into groups — buses, chaperone teams, activity rotations • Scan students in with QR wristbands or badges — head counts in seconds, not minutes • Share a live link with each chaperone so their group's status shows up on your board • Share the student view at final check-in — now the whole group is looking for who's missing • Parent sign-outs with a signature, captured right on your screen **YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS** RollCall runs on a Google Sheet in YOUR Google account. Your roster never lives on our servers — you can open, edit, and keep your data forever, even if you stop using the app. **SET UP IN MINUTES** Copy the template sheet, follow the guided setup, and share a setup code with your own devices — or your whole department. No student accounts. No IT ticket. **BUILT FOR SCHOOL LIFE** • Works on iPhone and iPad • Fast enough for the bus line, simple enough for a substitute • Made by a working teacher who needed exactly this app — so she built it **ROLLCALL PRO** Class Mode boards, seating charts, and scan check-in are part of RollCall Pro, a yearly subscription with a free trial.
