This paper aims at developing applications based on active RFID and wireless GSM message to construct an active student attendance system that sends the message to parents cellular phone informing whether their children are safely arrive in classroom at morning. Meanwhile, the system is also used to relieve the traffic congestion around kindergartens especially while the parents are driving cars to pick up their children after class at rush or on rainy days.
