Ask for time off

A screen recording of Pearspark doing exactly this in a sample school, and the same 7 steps written out below in the labels you'll see on screen.

How to ask for time off

  1. 1Click Time off under People in the sidebar (it appears once your school turns on the time clock)
  2. 2Click Ask for time off
  3. 3Pick the First day and Last day — the same date for a single day
  4. 4Choose a Kind — Paid time off, Sick or Unpaid — and if you're paid by the hour, type the Hours you'd have worked
  5. 5Add a Note, such as a reason or who's covering — payroll sees it
  6. 6Click Send request — it waits under "My requests" until the office answers
  7. 7Click Withdraw on a request that's still waiting to take it back

Part of Staff, time clock & substitutes

Staff clock in and out and ask for time off; you fix a punch, send the pay period to payroll, keep each teacher's clearance on file, and say who covers a class.
