Absence Management
Welcome to Frontline Education!
The Frontline Absence Management System greatly simplifies the process of recording and managing absences and finding substitutes. It is available to you 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and can be accessed via internet and phone.
Teachers, Instructional Assistant III’s and IV’s who need a substitute will request one through Absence Management for all absences except long-term medical leaves. School Office Coordinators will work with Personnel to pre-arrange substitutes for long-term medical leaves.
Employees may not arrange substitute assignments with subs directly.
Absence Management will call substitutes from 5:00am – 7:00am for jobs that have not been filled for that day and will call from 3:00pm – 10:00pm for jobs on future days.
Please contact the Switchboard at (562) 907-5900, or by email at switchboard@ewcsd.org if the absence begins in less than two (2) hours or in an emergency where it was not possible to put the absence in Absence Management.
