Fixed

- Renamed camelCase PHP variables to snake_case; removed non-English inline comments.
- Eliminated N+1 DB queries by preloading attendance records before student loops.

get_records calls to recordsets for memory-efficient iteration over large datasets.
- Fatal errors on course module duplication resolved (issue #19).
- Replaced unsafe
innerHTML DOM manipulation with core/templates for schedule and holiday rows (issue #18).
- Wrapped row templates in
<table>/<tbody> for Mustache linter compatibility; switched to DOMParser for safe insertion.
