Family 1 Family 2 Prompt to delete EmergContact
In a divorce situation where there are two family records we would like a prompt to the 2nd family/parent when Family 1 deletes them as an emergency contact. The prompt to Family 2 would be to approve or deny the delete request. We're aware we can have this setting enabled for the campus registrar to review/approve/deny the request but don't want that burden on them. This is a hot topic for our district that has come up several times and has made its way to our leadership as well as parent calls directly to Skyward's leadership.

Exporting Duplicates
When creating exports for online curriculum it has become a problem in some cases where I am unable to automate exports due to duplicate student data being pulled. I am aware there are systems that my export can filter through to remove duplicates from my student exports to then be automatically imported into online curriculum. I am asking for Skyward to have this capability to do this.
I am asking for the capabilities to remove duplicate student data within the Skyward export itself.

allow term adjustments to be calculated into final
We often use grade adjustments within term grade posting based on attendance and other expectations. It is rare that our teachers use the weighted grade option as that is very difficult to have a balance of equal points between grading terms. As I understand that is the only option to have the grade adjustments be calculated into the FG. (By the way we have semester/term grading). If a teacher makes (ex) a grade increase because a student was close to an A- that positivity should be then reflected in the students final grade. That is not currently the case. A…

Different background color for new year
The goal is to have a visual reminder when we are working in new year scheduling (instead of current year). There have been times we have inadvertently changed something in current year when we thought we were in new year. Have a different color background would prevent that.
I would like a visible distinction between new and current year to prevent errors to making changes.27 votes -
Do not allow inactive students to be charged
We would like for inactive students lunch accounts not to be charged accidently thru Point of Service. We are having an issue with current students typing incorrectly their keypad number and students who are not longer with the district are being charged.

Discipline Bullying
To prepare for the civil rights report next year is there a way for the victim information in discipline to be required for any bullying offense? This would ensure that the information for report will be accurate.

NSOE Drop down for Hospital
Would like to have a drop-down to choose Hospital in NSOE with a choice to add one that is not on the list.
We tend to get many spellings of Hospitals in our area and then have to clean them up later. A drop-down list might help to not have so much clean up in this area.

Custom Student Schedule
It would be great if we could create a custom student schedule template like we can for transcripts & report cards. We find that the standard template is a little clunky (and has an "old school" dot-matrix look to it) and has somethings we don't need/want to print on the schedule and doesn't have other things we would want on the schedule. If we could create our own custom template we could design it to suit our needs. The student schedules that we had in the old PaC system look a lot nicer & have a little more customization available…

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.

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
