The day in one line and four numbers: classes, dancers expected, trials, and how many things need you. Under them, Needs you now fills as attendance comes in, one card each with the one thing to do in gold, then every class with its dancers.
Tap the search box (or press /), type a name or phone number, tap the row. The drawer shows the balance, each dancer with age, allergy flags and classes, approved pickup people, phone and email, waiver status and any open follow-up.
Needs you now lists anyone a teacher has not marked once class started. Tap the gold Call button (it names the parent); the card clears, and the absence is on the record. If they turned up and the teacher missed them, tap Arrived — the teacher's iPad updates in seconds.
Families opens on everyone. Tap Owing for the families with money outstanding, Documents for the ones who have not signed. The Dancers tab lists every dancer this season. Trial call-backs are not here — they live on the Trials board.
Notes and incidents land newest and most serious first. Tap Family to open them, Seen once handled. They also reach Orielle and the dancer's record. Nothing goes to a parent automatically — the studio decides what the parent hears.
