After the catechist approves
Once approved, your child's lessons on the leave days are marked "Excused" automatically in the class attendance sheet. The catechist does not have to do it by hand.
A "Present" or "Late" mark already recorded for that lesson stays as it is. If the request is rejected or cancelled, the attendance sheet goes back to how it was.
