How to bring non matching values into the same column

Hi ,

My current index when done table shows:

Name| Attendance | Class
abc | Present | 2A
efg | Present | 2A

And my lookup has the following details: (I can edit the values in this lookup)
Name Attendance Class
abc

efg
hig

And my expected output is
Name| Attendance | Class
abc | Present | 2A
efg | Present | 2A
hig | absent

When I am trying to do append, it actually brings names twice. Any advice?
This is just a sample representation, I have other columns as well.

DO NOT USE join; try this:

Your first search here:
| inputlookup append=t YourLookupNameHere.csv
| stats first(Attendance) AS Attendance Values(Class) AS Class BY Name
| fillnull value="Absent" Attendance
