CASES to run attendance. We were rail roaded in to getting ID
Attend. It is hard to get the message across that CASES still has
to be maintained for student records and finance etc. and that all of the
components of CASES actually talk to each other. ID Attend has not saved
us any time so far. It may in the future.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
