“Headcount” is a noun that means “the instance of counting how many people are present.”
For example, a teacher may do a headcount when taking students on a trip to make sure everyone is accounted for.
A headcount differs from a roll call or a “roster check,” both of which run through names to see who is present and who isn’t.
