Future Scheduling for LEP & 504 attributes
When generating a scheduling run, you have the choice to balance by "attributes". The only attributes available currently are gender, race, and SPED. This is important because it looks at codes to avoid putting too many students with the same attribute in the same section. Could we add two more attributes of LEP and 504? I think that these special populations are just as critical to balancing as is the attribute of Special Education. Since 504 and LEP codes already exist in Skyward

Data Mining Oldest Only
When running a data miniing report, is there a way to get the report to pull just one record for each family (Family 1 and Family 2). We need to run an address report for district students (KG-12th grade) for Families 1 & 2 but we only want one record per family. So basically add an Oldest/Only button or feature to Data Mining Reports.

New Student Online Enrollment check for matches an option to also change values for existing records
New Student Online Enrollment check for matches an option to also change values for existing records. We have found that when checking for matches because a student is already existing registrars are getting frustrated guardians don't always fill out the form exactly right or the student was put in the system with missing information. For example on the NSOE application a parent is asked for a previous district and school. If the school chooses to use the existing student record in the system when choosing the matches the existing record doesn't have those fields the application can't be approved because…

Link Calendar to Attendance for Emergency Days
Currently when we have an emergency day (snow day, cold day, etc), we need to manually go into each entity and delete out attendance for pre-arranged absences, etc. When editing the calendar for these days, it would be much more efficient and so helpful if a pop-up could ask if we want to delete student attendance for specific/all entities/schools.

Cloning Reports from entity to entity
We have many reports that we customize using User Defined fields. We're not just running reports with open ranges. It's very time consuming to create these specialized reports at all six entities. It would be nice if we could clone our reports from entity to entity. Thank you.

Skybuild and Data Mining date ranges
It would be a great time saver to include the option of 'current year' when building skybuild or data mining reports that run every year. Every summer, we have to edit each report to change either the school year or date range for the report to run based on the current school year.

Positive Attendance Button through Student Access
With the current Pandemic and schools closing to go virtual at any time, it would be extremely helpful if we can have a button, by student by class, where a student can check in that they are present. This button should be only available when the district says activate it or if the entity is virtual. The option to activate it for students who are virtual but the school is not should also be available when the student is in the same class. We may have a situation where a student is doing virtual, via camera or other devices, within…

Future Scheduling Reports - Free Period and Partial Schedules Reports
Future Scheduling Reports - Free Period and Partial Schedules Reports both have flaws in the underlying logic for the reports - neither of the reports looks at the schedule status for the student. That means if a future class was dropped, but not deleted, it still counts for the student and they don't appear on either report.
We had been running the reports to fix schedules, but knew of some students who had holes, but were not appearing on the reports. Caused lots of confusion and inaccurate schedules for students.
This idea is the result of service call #4405450. In…

Texas - Industry Based Certifications (IBC) Module
On the course master add a field similar to the course groups (use the certifications table as the look up table – WS\ST\TB\SP\TB\PO) allowing us to associate certifications to the course. Would need to be school specific.
In the gradebook give teachers an option to add the certification, date, pass/fail. They would only be able to select from the certifications associated with the course they are currently in the gradebook. Data entry for the teachers would have to be simple and fast.
Display certifications to the student and parent in Family Access.
Populate the certification under the Special Programs tab…

We’re currently exploring potential solutions and identifying how we can simplify the entry of these records.
Thanks!

Unofficial transcript available in Family Access
It would be great if we could run a transcript that had unofficial as a watermark that could be posted - either in reports where they run a current one, or at the least one we could run like our report cards and post to the portfolio. This would make the end of the year scholarship, as well as other things along the way, smoother for our Student Services.

Birth Country needs to be a dropdown or list.
In Student Profile, Birth History, the Birth Coutnry needs to be a dropdown or list because the field as it stands allows for anything to be entered.
Example of what we see - US, USA, U.S., U.s.a., United States, u s a
This affects data in other programs. Could we tie it to the ED FI Country of Birth??20 votes -

Make it easier for existing FA users to register New students w/out duplicates
There needs to be a way to keep RETURNING students from submitting a NSOE application. I know that we can disable displaying the link to new enrollment on Family Access, but if you do that then existing users will have to request another acct to register a new student. Say a parent has 2 in school and now they will have a PK. Parent already has an account. If the register new student link is not visible in Family Access she will have to go to the district site and click on the new student enrollment...which defaults to register for…

Skyward field for "today's date" in custom form (auto populated for parent)
As we ask parents to fill out custom forms online, we ask that they "electronically sign and date" the form. We would like to be able to have the field for date auto populate the date they are signing so they don't have to type that date. When we print the form, it does show a date completed but parents do not see that date. We want them to see that they are signing and dating the form.

A Parent/Guardian communication log for each individual student
With school being permanently closed for the rest of the year, it would really be helpful to have a centralized communication log. Our district is working together to ensure everyone has the most updated information which requires school administrators, office staff, counselors, Deans IT support staff, Special Education staff and coaches in addition to teachers who are in constant communication with parents/guardians to somehow document the date, time, subject of the communication, who they spoke with and more detailed notes field if needed. This needs to be attached to each individual student not as a family note. If the setup…

Ability to Set a Post Time
We send a lot of emails at a specific time of day but I cannot control when it posts. As soon as I click "save" it will post even though I set the message to go out at a later time that day.

Data Mining Report
Is there a way to format a Data Mining Report so that the fields will print underneath one another rather than across the page. With the maximum Report Width of 172 for a landscape report, when the fields print across it limits the amount of data in the report.
Ex.
Parent Name
Address
Phone Number
Emailinstead of Parent Name Address Phone Number Email
