email to parents when report cards are posted to the portfolio
is it possible to have Skyward auto email a parent when the Progress Reports and Report Cards are posted to the portfolio in Family Access from the Office Side and not use the message center?

Mass set note filter
We’ve researched this issue, and it turns out that the system is functioning properly. We’ve tested, and users at the middle school (and elementary school) do have access to see the legal notes. However, the list of notes is filtered by date, and the user must update the “Filter Options” to see notes since a specified date. If the filtering date is not far enough back, then older notes are not shown. We’ve confirmed with Skyward Support that there is no “rolling forward” process for notes from year to year or campus to campus. They are tied to the student.…

Pop-up Confirmation for Auto Email Notifications
Oftentimes, if just switching families (for the ability to do online registration), editing an address of an already withdrawn student, adding a current student to an entity (8th gr to HS) - to name a few situations, the automated notification causes alarm among staff and parents. Instead of having to go into Automated Emails and inactivate the notification every time a simple change is needed and then having to remember to go back and activate it again, it would be helpful it there was a pop-up asking if the email notification should be sent.

Add Additional Column to Course Master-Details View for Teacher Conferences
Add an “Allow Teacher Conferences” column to the Course Master - Course Details view to avoid having to expand each course or run additional reports to see which courses are set to allow teacher conferences and which are not.

Allow student names to include an apostrophe when appropriate
Many cultures utilize an apostrophe when naming their children. Currently skyward doesn't allow this. I teach kindergarten and we spend a lot of time focusing on our names and talking about how important they are. I am having a hard time explainging to my student why his name looks incorrect on his report card. :( In this day and age of diversity and tolerance, maybe this is something you should consider changing within your platform?

Add Guardian Language choice to the Extra Information options that can be selected for the Student Profile header
The student language field is an option on the Extra Information to Display list for the customizable header information in student profile. For our district it is more important that we can see the Family 1 home language field because that would indicate if an interpreter is needed when calling. Please consider adding the guardian language field as an option on this list. An alternative would be to create a new field called Interpreter Needed and making that available on this screen.

Order of Student Incicators
It would be nice to be able to adjust the order of the student indicators. Used to be we selected what slot, now that we have the open ended (which is FANTASTIC) we need to be able to select in what order they display.

allow attachments to emails from family view of student profile.
I need to send an email (with an attachment) to an individual students parent. you can send an email to a parent from the family tab of the student profile but there is no Attach option. as a non teacher without a grade book i would need to use the advanced features Message center and then create a processing list with one student in order to send an email to a guardian with an attachment.

Search by Parking Permit #
In Mobile you can do a search by parking permit # but you cannot do that in the desktop. It would be so nice to look up this way.

Add Counselor Field to Customizable Options
Recently Skyward provided a new field under Entity Info to allow districts (schools) to track Counselors if they differ from Advisors. This is a great option and Skyward did diligence to add it as a mass update option under Student Mass Change. Our staff would like to see this go one step further by adding the field as an option to updating a user's custom list of fields that display under the Extra Information option within Student Profile. When you click on the Customize link Advisor can be added however Counselor is not yet available. Screen shots attached. Thank you!

District to District request multiple students via processing list or range by school code
When using district to district, it would be very helpful to be able to pull in demographic and family information from our local districts for multiple students attending our Career Center. The ability to use a processing list or select a range by school code to request multiple students at once would be extremely beneficial.

Home Language Codes
The Home Language Code is located in the student profile, the family tab, and the LEP tab, but these do not update each other so you have to remember to add/edit all three sections. It would be a lot more helpful if they would update in all 3 locations when one of them is updated, because it is hard to remember that there are 3 different places to add/edit it and the code should usually be the same in all 3 locations as well.

Display all parent phone numbers on the Profile info page
Currently the student profile info page only displays the primary 1st guardian phone number. You need to click on the parent/guardian name to view their second phone number. It would be helpful if the profile info page would show all the phone numbers for the parent/guardians.

Creating a utility to mass remove student indicators
Can a utility be created to mass remove student indicators? For example, we use the Dr. Note Required indicator when a student has reached so many absences. We then remove this indicator at the end of the year as students start fresh every school year. It would be helpful to be able to run a utility to remove them rather than go in and remove each one individually.

Sticky Notes
It would be extremely beneficial (almost critical at times) to have a "sticky note" option in Students - Students Profile. Have an icon that resembles a notepad / sticky note pad that would allow you to create a personal individualized "note" on a selected students profile. The note would be only for you to see and is not part of the student record. The note would only be linked to one student. The note instantly opens every time you enter that students profile, until you decide to delete it. You can also add or delete the text in the open…

"STUDENT TYPE" on the ENTRY/WITHDRAWAL tab needs to stay what it's set when the students are rolled up every year
The student type on the entry /withdrawal tab changes every time the student gets rolled up year after year. Why can't it just stay 504, AR, etc? Every year after the rollup we have to go and change the student type because it defaults to REG. Trust me, there are not a lot of REG students. Mostly AR, 504.
Thank you for your consideration in the matter.

LEP and 504 as Y/N fields in Profile like Sped
General demographic reports are that people want are always the same. They want Gender, Race, Sped, English Learner, 504, etc. When trying to set up data mining reports there is an As Of field for English Learner and 504 to pull a yes no that is as of the day you run it. It would be nice to either have that field be variable so you can set this report up to be a scheduled task and it would always pull current information of whether the student is 504 or English Learner. OR add field on the profile tab that…

Student Profile - Extra Information Add Gender Identity
Please add the option to show the Gender Identy of a student on the student profile header in the customize/extra information area. We have the ability to only show gender identity for parents and teachers, but the office staff/student management users need to have this ability, too.
