Parent approval for student requested courses via Family Access
When a student enters their course requests, to have it go to the parent in family access for approval, before it goes to the school. Instead of having to print the course request sheet and send home for signature, allow the parents to sign in and approve the course requests via Family Access.

FAMILY ACCESS ATTENDANCE
*The suggestion was to only show and give the school day time options vs. the full 24 hour period since so many of our parents don't notice the a.m. / p.m. times especially 12:00 a.m. & 12 p.m. There are numerous errors due to this.
*Also the "All Day" box, is there a way to highlight, make it larger or change the default for the "All Day" box. It is kind of shadowed out and I don't believe most parents even notice it.Please let me know if these issues can be resolved.
Thanks,

Arena Scheduling Required Forms
I would like the option to require parents to complete/submit a custom form (liability waiver for summer school) before they can click the "Submit Schedule" link in Arena Scheduling. This will eliminate the need to chase down parents after they submit their schedule to collect the signed waivers
before the start of summer school.6 votes -
Improving Access to Custom Forms in the Skyward Mobile App
Many parents have expressed interest in being able to access custom forms directly through the Skyward mobile app. The technology department gets numerous calls and support requests from parents stating they are unable to locate the custom forms. If integrating custom forms into the app is not feasible, an alternative solution could be to add a "Custom Forms" button or link within the app. This "Button" would redirect parents to access those forms through their web browser. This would provide parents a more convenient way to access any necessary custom forms, even if they cannot be directly integrated into the…

Hiding final grades in Family Access for standards gradebook
It would be great if we could hide the final grade in family access for standards gradebook. New DOE rules, we have to send a final grade across for ALL courses. We are adding the P/F to report, but we do not include that on report cards. However we can't block it from family access. It makes no sense to parents because there is no pass or fail for elementary grades.

Mock Attachments & Manage Required Documents from NSOE to Family Access
Currently, NSOE allows for viewing and checking off documentation uploaded through the portal. Family Access should reflect this same option, providing a link to view attachments from Online Registration and Online Forms, and provide a Manage Required Documents button to mock the same options setup for NSOE. This is imperative for districts tracking Proof of Residency, unless they want to use post-it notes or a spreadsheet outside of Skyward.

Hide EOC Score in Family and Student Access
We are a block district and import EOC scores into Skyward in January. I am having to keep the gradebook disabled to parents and students until Semester 1 grades are ready. Teachers have to review these EOC scores before completing the students final grades, which takes a bit. If there was an option to hide the EOC score until we are ready to release grades, that would enable us to leave open the gradebooks for families so they can see the new term assignments.

Mass assign obligations
Could there be a way to mass assign obligations to all students? For example, in order for them to see their new schedule, they first need to turn in Tech Forms for their computers and the parent needs to complete Family Access Updates.
Also, parents should be able to see obligations in Family Access, so they are aware of what the student needs to complete.2 votes -
Absence Request FA Screen
Our district uses the absence requests to request early dismissals. A Skycoder prompt based upon attendance code (such as early dismissal) would be beneficial to remind parents not to submit an early dismissal through the portal after 9:00 a.m. for the same day. Likewise, a prompt attached to the medically absent code telling parents to attach a doctors note would be beneficial as well, when the ability to add attachments is added. :)

Email Notification when family cancels absences request in family access
I have notifications enabled to notify our secretary when a family member creates an absence request via Skyward Family Access. This is working great. However, if that family member goes in an cancels the previously entered request that has not been approved yet is there a way our secretary can get an email notifiation of that? Also, would be nice for the parent to get an email of that cancellation as well.

Texas- Add grade level to the pre-defined fields for the Family Access Absence Notifcation Request
Texas - Add grade level to the pre-defined fields for the Family Access Absence Notification Request. Adding the entity that the student attends would be very helpful. This would allow the attendance clerks to quickly identify their students should there be more than one attendance clerk on a campus.

Family Access Food Service and Fee Management Paid By (parent name)
Please add the parent name to the paid by, it just says 'Via Web'. We have split families and both parents have equal rights for the children, they want to see that they paid for food service or the fees. Even on the receipt it doesn't show who paid for it.
