- Branded PDF summaries ready for state filings or family portfolios

- Configurable per-day instructional hours for co-op days vs. home days
Frequently asked
Common questions
How many instructional days does my state require?
It varies — most states expect between 170 and 180 instructional days per school year, with hour minimums that differ by grade level. EdPort auto-tallies your days and hours in a format you can hand to your state, umbrella oversight, or your own records without hand-counting.
Do I have to keep attendance records after a student graduates?
Best practice — and in many states legally required — is to keep cumulative student records including attendance for the entire time the student was enrolled, plus several years after. EdPort keeps them permanently unless you archive or delete.
Can teachers mark attendance themselves, or only admins?
Both. Admins invite teachers by email or shareable link. Each teacher sees only their assigned students and marks attendance for them.
Can I track partial-day attendance?
Yes. You can set instructional hours per day and mark exceptions (excused early releases, half-days, holidays). Hour totals adjust automatically.
What about co-op days vs. home days?
You can track both. Homeschool groups typically use EdPort to record co-op meeting days plus at-home instructional days. Categories are configurable per group.
