What is a detention snooze?

A detention snooze is a way to postpone the date on which a student needs to serve his/her detention. For example, if a student earns a detention today, but has a legitimate excuse for not serving the detention for a few days, you can visit the Detentions page and set a snooze for that student. S/he won't appear on the "To Serve Today" roster until the date of the snooze. You can also add a note to snoozes.

Note that detention snoozes are different from the "Served Tomorrow" setting (a setting that doesn't add students to the detention roster until the day after s/he earns a detention). If your school uses the "Served Tomorrow" setting, you do not need to snooze detentions until tomorrow, but you can still use snoozes to postpone detentions further into the future.
