Frontline Education Login Accounts and the Absence Management System
All BPS employees are required to enter any days away from work into the Absence Management System, an internet-based data system operated by a national vendor, Frontline Education. Please click on the links below for information on how to use the system to enter absences and request substitutes:
If you have any questions or would like to arrange in-person training on the Frontline Education systems, please contact Rebecca Leeb at 617-993-5420 or rleeb@belmontschools.net.
Sharing Teacher Google Files with Substitutes
Teachers may wish to share certain computer files with daily substitutes, e.g., to allow the substitute to show the files on the classroom Smart Board. Teachers' files are stored on their own password-protected Google Drives. Teachers should never share their own usernames and passwords with substitutes, as this would give them access to all confidential information stored in the teacher's virtual drive. Substitutes should only access the BPS system via the school's guest username and password (available from the school's administrative assistant).
Teachers may choose to share items with substitutes via Google Drive. Substitutes can sign into Google Drive using the school's guest Google account, which is the same as the guest user ID but with "@belmontschools.net" added at the end. The password is the same as the school's guest account password. This guest Google account will allow substiutes to open files (e.g., docs, sheets, slides) shared within Belmont Schools, but the substitute will NOT be able to access information in a teacher's Google Classroom environment.
If a teacher wishes to share an item via Google in advance of the absence date (i.e., before the substitute signs into the school's guest account), the Share settings on the item must be set to "Anyone with the link".
Please note that daily substitutes will not have access to @belmontschools.net email accounts. Staff members should communicate with substitutes at the substitute's personal email address. Substitute phone and email contact information may be obtained from the school administrative assistant.
