Grade Percentages added to Grade Cards
I am making a request that Grade Percentages be made available to print on grade cards-District & Custom. I do NOT want to request this as a custom change for our district only. I would like to see this added for ALL Skyward users. When I asked during our 1st year of using Skyward I was told that percentages weren't needed on grade cards. However when students withdraw the school they are transferring to wants %'s especially if it's in the middle of a grading period. If an A is 90-100 there is a big difference between the 90 &…

Course Recommendation Report for Teachers
Teachers are unable to easily view the recommendations that they have entered for their classes. They have to individually go to each student to see the recommendations that have been made but there is not an easy way to check to see which students do not have a recommendation. This puts a burden not only on teachers but also on the guidance/office staff when trying to finalize recommendations and turn them into requests. It is vital that teachers are able to run a report that shows the recommendations that have been made.
A report that teachers can run by section…30 votes -
Allow Attendance Factor For Selected Entities
If you try to run this report from the district entity you can still only enter one Attendance Factor value. This value is then attached to each entity displayed on the report. That is obviously not correct. The current workaround is to run this report at each entity specifying a different Attendance Factor value each time. This is inefficient. It would be helpful if you were able to specify the Attendance Factor for each entity when running from the district level. This way you only need to run the report one time vs. eight times (in our case).

Need to Be able to have 2 different codes
Need to have 2 codes for tardy Kiosk. One generic code for tardy arriving and one generic code for leaving students. Skyward only provides 1 tardy kiosk code for entire district. We want to be able to track by entity and to have 2 machines with 2 different codes in entity. The positive attendance piece does not work for this as it resets with every attendance mod within the school day. We have students leaving all hours of the day and cannot have time reset every single period. The tardy kiosk will keep the time open all day so we…

Add ability to look up student by first name
We have kindergarten students coming through the lunch line who have issues with their last names. It would be helpful if the software would allow the lookup of a student by first name in addition to the last name that is currently available on the POS screens.

Additional Bus Stops Needed
Currently the Bus Stop area in Busing can only hold 4 routes. We have some students with up to 6 routes. Our parents view busing in Family Access and aren't always getting all the information they need.
Please consider adding the capability to add up to 8 bus stops per student in the busing area.55 votes -
PEIMS Import of 504 and RtI data (eSped)
Please allow the import capability of the 504 and RTI information through SkyBuild. It would save much data entry if this were available. Now that 504 and RTI will be PEIMS elements for 2018-19 will Skyward allow the import of the 504 and RTI indicators through the eSped import process? Currently the elements are not available to import. Now that it's a PEIMS field. I am asking this to help get that information into Skyward without having to manually enter every field.

Need capability to copy template from year to year
Under the Mass Change Course Master Fields I use the Course Range option of Individual Course Selection to make Texas specific changes. For instance all my courses that are the first part of a two semester course are assigned a course sequence code of 1. The courses that are the second part of a two semester course are assigned a course sequence of 2. And the courses that are single semester only have a course sequence code of 0. I also do this with population served for certain courses among other changes.
I would like to be able to copy…27 votes -
Add an additional code
If a student is late more than 20 minutes our district marks the student as absent. It would be so helpful if the tardy kiosk could be set up so that an additional code could be added in with set times each period to mark the student absent instead of tardy.
This enhancement would save time for attendance secretaries who now have to run reports and then change the students tardy to an absence.67 votes -
Allow fees to be made in the stundet's profile
Right now they can easily view a student has fees but can't add or pay fees which makes users go to a separate area in Skyward
. We would like the secretaries be able to enter in fees and payments directly on the student's profile. This will allow secretaries to complete all their tasks in one place.13 votes -
Add "Created Date" to data mining for Medicaid
We would like to be able to data mine Medicaid log detail entries by the date they were entered. This date can be found in the "History" of detail entry but is not one of the available fields in data mining. We bill Medicaid ourselves and have found that we have missed many monthly entries because they have been entered late resulting in a loss of reimbursable funds. I have attached a screenshot of the date we would like included as a data mineable field.
If we could data mine by the "created date" then we would be more accurate…24 votes -
Expand Characters for Middle Name
Our district currently has multiple students with names that are too long to fit in the Middle Name field (mostly because of multiple names). We need this field expanded in order for Birth Certificate names to match our Official documentation. Please assist.

Set Print Hard Copy to default to unchecked
Would like to have the option to set "Print Hard Copy Reports to default to unchecked when we are processing NSOE. It currently comes over as checked and we have to uncheck it. We only send to a handful of parents who do not have an email address.

Attendance Enhancement Needed
We have a "mini" college campus @HS. We have over 350 kids that move in and out of our building on a daily basis that we need to track for attendance. We have codes set up for such but there is no simple way to enter this except one by one!
I would propose to add an enhancement in the Attendance Entry by Class or Activity screen to add a "selected days" button and a "meet" button to easily add students scheduled in certain classes that leave the building. It would also be nice to do this on individual student.…24 votes -
Add ability to view only Active Students
When building a processing list by campus it would be nice to view only active students. This having to go through ANY student ever enrolled in the campus is very time consuming. I believe this feature would speed up the process of building the processing name list.

Display Day 1/Day 2 schedule on calendar
Goal:
a) Display Day 1/Day 2/exceptions designations on a calendar for educators students and families.
b) Allow exception days to be locked and exempted from recalculation of the Day1/Day2 rotation.
c) Provide ability to designate a day as something other than Day1 or Day2 but still have it count as an instructional day
Negative impact:
a) Examples: Administrator wants to set up meeting with teacher who has prep only on Day1; parent wants to arrange rides for student who has off campus pass for a class that meets on Day2; teacher trying to set up a guest speaker for class…

Course Conflict Matrix Details
I'm proposing that when navigating to the Course Conflict Matrix Details (WS/OF/FS/BM/SB) we also include courses that have ZERO conflicts under the "Number of Conflicts" column. This would make much easier to know which changes we could make to our Master Schedule if we knew where we could actually move the course to - to an area that has zero conflicts. I confirmed with Skyward that the only way to view zero conflicts now under that screen would be to export the screen to excel export our Course Master (active courses only) to excel and then compare each excel spreadsheet…

Add Student Grad/Grad Year to Report
Our Principals rely heavily on the Chronic Attendance Report. It would be very helpful for this report to include student grade level/grad year and/or the ability to sort by grade/grad year. It would also be helpful if a range of percentages could be entered and only those students print. I currently have to print it for each grade level put it in Excel and delete the students with less than 10% absent.

Online registration font
I think it would be a good idea to have the option to change font size and color for the online registration opening message. Right now it is smaller and people just glance over it. Sometimes it is helpful to put an important note in that area.
Add an area in the setup to adjust font.82 votes
