Automated Emails for Failed Wellness Responses
It would be helpful to be able to setup automated emails that notify a particular staff member(s) when a failed Wellness Screening response is submitted, rather than always needing to login to Skyward and check the report.

Add a way for teachers to adjust the default for attendance
Currently, the gradebook attendance defaults to being present. Virtual teachers now have to mark students virtual each day to be counted present. It would be nice if teachers could change the default so they would all show virtual instead of present or have a way to mark all students at once so you don't have to click on each student individually. Thanks!!

IEP ACCOMMODATION FIELDS THAT CAN BE PULLED INTO REPORTS NEEDED FOR IEP FORMS
For several years every time we get ready for standardized testing, we have to manually go through IEP's because there is no way to pull the accommodations for each student that has an IEP or 504 plan. Within the IEP, we list the accommodations for testing, however that is not a field that can be data mined nor is it a field that named to pull on any other report.
It would be great to modify the IEP form to allow the fields to be pulled into reports and data mined, especially for accommodations for testing, but also for goals…

Message Center Attachment Size Limitation check BEFORE allowing user to save/send message
Currently if a message exceeds the attachment size limitation there is not an instant notification to the user in Message Center. The current setup allows the user to add large attachments that end up went saved try to process in the email queue for hours (we had an example of 6 hours) before failing and giving an error. In addition, the time that is spent for these messages to try and process and fail it is also holding up other messages from being sent with small or no attachments (until hours later). If the system could do a file size…
13 votesThank you for submitting this idea to the Product Ideas Portal.
After some review, we have determined what we believe is causing Message Center email queues to error out due to attachment file sizes.
This is due to a user attaching more than one file to their email within Message Center with a total combined file size exceeding the allowed maximum for the district’s email client.
To help prevent this from happening, we will add the ability to set a maximum size limit for all attachments (“Total size limit for all Message Center Attachments for a given message”). This configuration will be located in the Maximum Attachment Size setup area (PS\SA\DM\DS).
Thanks!

Add the ability to send parent notifications for attendance entered for prior dates as well as today
With remote learning attendance, corrections can be made up to a week later. We need the ability for Family Access notifications to include not just attendance entered today for today, but attendance entered today for a prior date.

Need to able to view and update Student Wellness screening in EA+
We need an EA+ (mobile and web) view of screener results that updates/refreshes live - a list of kids in 1st period and their screener results. We need to be able to stop students immediately as they walk in the classroom door if the screener result is fail or blank. This preventative measure can't be done at the building level - it will be done at the classroom level by their first teacher of the day. We are picturing something similar to the Post Daily Attendance screen but with a date, list of kids, and results.

Expand Language Translator
Would it be possible to have the capability to translate more in the Language Translator? I would like to see areas for translation expanded to include such areas as the heading on the report card, such as: Course, Earned, Absences, Tardies (whatever headings districts may use). Also, we show Cumulative GPA, Year to Date GPA, Cumulative Earned Credits, Year to Date GPA Credits on the report card. Additional information we show: Grade, Advisor and Term. These are many areas which remain in English. We would like to have a more detailed Spanish translation of the report card than mostly an…

Custom Report Card Teacher Name Print Option
With the requirement for smaller class sizes, the setup for grade level teachers has changed. There is still the traditional one-teacher classroom, but now there is also a cohort group of students who have a different teacher for every curriculum area. To accommodate this on the Standards Custom Report Card, the subject object is set to print the teacher/class with the subject area grades. There can also be team teaching, so the subject object needs to be set to print "All Teachers." However, sometimese EL and SPED teachers have access to enter grades in the primary teacher's grade book, so…

Translation software
Google Translate used to work with Skyward. Since it no does, it would be great if Skyward built that feature into FA.

Giving teachers capability to take previous days attendance for class and not individually
Our teachers will be taking attendance for a school day the following day. We are doing Asynchronous Remote which gives the student until Midnight to log in.
When the teacher logs in to take attendance it pulls up the current day and they are having to click on each individual student to record the previous day.
Is there a way for them to mark the class as a whole for the previous day?13 votes -

More filters on data mining to exclude
It would be nice if we could exclude with a click of the button. For example, if I want all my language minority students, then I could say "not like English" and I would get all the students with another language than English. It would be a very convenient and easy to understand feature. Thanks!

Need entity settings for Student Wellness screener
We need entity controls for parent/student ability to submit. We would not want elementary kids submitting their own screener but we may allow students to do it at secondary.

Fee Management - Ability to Reverse Charge if paid via web/vendor
Currently, if a parent pays for a fee/charge using our online vender/wep payment, we lose the ability to reverse the charge and have to use an Arrears code to document the refund. It would be a lot easier if we could still just do a "reverse charge" and process the refund record for fees paid online like we can for fees that were paid with cash/check.

Parent conference confirmation emails - include guardian phone number field
With COVID making conferences virtual instead of in person, our conference scheduler will be setting up scheduled phone calls. It would be very helpful to be able to include the parent/guardian phone number in the confirmation email to confirm that as the contact number.

Teacher - Mass Enter Attendance - Virtual Present
Indiana teachers who teach students virtually must now enter Virtual Present each day for each student. Since Skyward is hard coded to mark students Present, it will lead to a great deal of inaccurate data.
We can now add additional columns for teachers on their attendance page.
It would be great if teachers could click on the Virtual Present header to have it auto fill Virtual Present for all students.
To add some complexity, we also are currently in Stage 4. This means 1/2 of the students are virtual Mon and Tue, the other 1/2 are virtual Thu and Fri…10 votesThank you for the feedback! With the release of June Addendum 9 (10/1/2020), PR 4495470 has added a Select All option within the header of each attendance option/column setup for teacher use on the Attendance by Name screen. With this, teachers can click on the link to mass apply the appropriate option to all students, make any minor modifications as needed, and save their class attendance.
In addition, PR 4506708 was completed in Addendum 9 to make the MOI column sortable. In the event you have Method of Instruction records set to differentiate these students, teachers can sort these students together.
I hope these new options assist teachers in their daily attendance entry, but please let us know any other feedback on the topic. Thank you!
