Read your dashboard
Your dashboard greets you by name and shows two things up front: a card with the count of homework items due today (or “All caught up! No homework due today.” if there are none) and a Today’s Goals card listing each PACE goal due today with a status pill: Met, Keep trying, Absent, Excused, No attempt, or Pending.

Check your attendance
Below the goals card, your dashboard also shows your own attendance for the last 30 school days.
