List of Checkbox returns false even when checked in asp.net core razor pages

Student Attendance class

 public class StudentAttendance
{
    public int Id { get; set; }
    public int StudentID { get; set; }
    public bool IsPresent { get; set; }

}

View table for my attendance form

 @foreach (var student in Model.Students)
          {
            <tr>
                <td> @student.FullName</td>
                <td><input type="hidden" asp-for="HiddenID" id="id" value="@student.StudentID"/></td>
                <td ><label class="col-form-label"><input type="checkbox" name="IsPresent" ></label></td> </tr> }

Attendance Page Model

 [BindProperty]
    public StudentAttendance studentAttendance { get; set; }

    [BindProperty]
    public List<int> StudentAttendanceList { get; set; }

    [BindProperty(SupportsGet = true)]
    public int? SearchClassID { get; set; }


    [BindProperty]
    public List<int> HiddenID { get; set; }

    [BindProperty]
    public bool IsPresent { get; set; }


    public IEnumerable<Student> Students { get; set; }

Attenadance On Post()

foreach (var id in HiddenID)
        {
            Conn.StudentAttendance.Add(new StudentAttendance
            {
                StudentID = id,
                IsPresent = IsPresent,
            });
        }

When i submit and save the IsPresent value remains false even when checked

Method 1

Since the IsPresent in the form is not bound to the Model, and the default value of IsPresent in the model is false. Finally, it obtained false each time. By dynamically changing the value in the checkbox through a JavaScript function, the corresponding selected id can be submitted to the background.

In Attendance.cshtml

<form method="post">
    <table>
        @foreach (var student in Model.Students)
        {
            <tr>
        
                <td> @student.FullName </td>
                <td><input type="hidden" asp-for="HiddenID" id="id" value="@student.StudentID" /></td>
                <td>
                    <label class="col-form-label">
                        <input type="checkbox" id="IsPresent" name="isPresent" value="false" onchange="changePresent(event,@student.StudentID)">
                    </label>
                </td>
            </tr>
        }
    </table>
    <input type="submit" name="name" value="sub" />
</form>
@section Scripts{ 
<script>
    function changePresent(e,id) {
        if (e.target.value=='true') {
            e.target.value = false
        }
        else {
            console.log('-=-=')
            e.target.value = id
        }
    }
</script>
}

Then, in post method, get the checked id, and justify whether the id is checked.

public void OnPost(int[] isPresent)
        {
            foreach (var id in HiddenID)
            {
                new StudentAttendance
                {
                    StudentID = id,
                    IsPresent = id == isPresent[id - 1],
                };
                /*Conn.StudentAttendance.Add(new StudentAttendance
                {
                    StudentID = id,
                    IsPresent = IsPresent,
                });*/
            }
        }
