  2. 2 columns for activities on custom transcripts

    We use a custom transcript and have the activities print on the back but a few students each year have so many activities they need a third page to the transcript. It would be nice to have the availability to have 2 columns (continuing) instead of only one. I tried two columns but the same information prints in both columns.

  3. Awards on Transcripts

    I would love to be able to print awards that students earn in their activities on their custom transcripts. I think it's important that they are recognized for all of their accomplishments.

  4. For the basic report card, it would be nice to have the option to choose comments only for that quarter, not every quarter.

  5. Need a way to data mine or report on State Credit, Local Credit, Total credit

    Due to different registrar errors when entering transfer credits we are finding that our State + Local is not equal to Total Credits on some students. It would be much easier to find these if there was a way to data mine this information.

  6. Print course on transcript, but NOT on report card

    We would like the option to print courses on student transcripts, but NOT on report cards. Right now, that is an all or nothing option. Can you please separate these options so that we can choose to print on one or the other?

    This would be extremely helpful for our Dual Enrollment courses that do not need to be printed on student report cards (they were not taken at our school), but still need to be printed on transcripts.

  7. Report showing Letter Grade vs. Percentage

    We would like this report because we have ran into times where teachers do grade changes after terms have ended and when Admin accept these changes there are times that the percentage and letter grade do not match up. This would make it easier for us to identify the students who's do not match.

  8. Assign Special Grade Mark Groups by Course Type

    When mass assigning special grade mark groups, it can be done by Dept, Subject, Course or Teacher. It would be nice to do be able to do it by Course Type. We have our certain types of classes that should all be marked pass/fail, but we have to assign that grade mark group by student and can't mass assign it to all alternative classes.

  9. Transfer Grading Comments

    We would like to be able to transfer Grading Comments the way that teachers are able to transfer grades to a new section. We need to transfer comments along with grades from one section to another the way that the grades are transferred to new sections.

  10. Grades Tab/Family & Student Access - Consitent with Bolded / Not Bolded Grades

    It would just make things less confusing if the Grades Tab and Family/Student Access were consistent with posted/non-posted grades. Currently, in the grades tab, posted grades are not bold and non-posted grades are green and bold. In family & student access, posted grades are black and bold and non-posted grades are not bold.

  11. Credits earned prior to 9th grade

    I want high school credits earned in middle school to appear on the high school transcript under the actual grade that they were earned in (8th grade, 7th grade) instead of lumping them all in 9th grade. This is not accurate.

  12. Mass Export Report Cards with a Custom Filename Format

    In order to import or share student report cards into some of our other software, the vendors require the report card files to have the filename as either the student ID (Other ID) or student name (LastFirst), so it would be helpful to have these options when exporting from Skyward.

  13. Option to Remove Industry Credential Headers on Transcript if No Data - Same as Option on Test Scores

    Currently, there is an option to remove the headers from the Test Scores section of a custom transcript if a student has no data in the test scores field. We need the same option for the Industry Credentials section of our custom transcript - otherwise it appears as if there is missing information.

    As of right now, we are having to track those students who have info in the associated fields, so that we can build and run separate transcripts for them.

    I have attached a screenshot of the button in the test scores field.

  15. Import Schools where Transcript Sent

    Update skybuild imports to include schools where transcripts were sent information.

    Date Sent
    School Name

    We have high school campuses using other applications like Naviance and Career Cruising to send transcripts however we need to import the schools sent information back to Skyward transcripts tab for historical purposes.

  17. Add non-cte industry credentials/work-based experiences to the transcript

    Currently, you can only add the Career/Tech Ed industry credentials and work-based credentials to the transcript. We are required, in PA, to add the non-cte industry credentials and work-based experiences to the transcript, especially since it directly affects the pathway to graduation.

  19. Standard Transcript - Additional Grade Buckets

    We are on a block schedule and need 6 grade buckets on our transcript - T1, T2, S1, T3, T4, S2. The standard transcript is exactly what we need, sorted by subject, but it only allows 5 grade buckets. Can one more be added?

  20. semester default formula

    If EOC were to be back in time to include in grades: Is there a way to have a separate formula that would average the "initial" S2 Grade (not Final Grade) with the EOC using different percents. Other words, use the initial S2 grade which includes Q3-40%, Q4-40%, SE2-20% and average it at 85% with EOC score at 15% for a final S2 Grade. Then the final S2 grade (with EOC averaged) would be averaged with S1 grade as 50/50 for a FINAL GRADE.
