Instructional Responsibility for PVAAS
The percentage of shared instruction will set to default to the value based on dividing 100 by the number of teachers flagged as having instructional responsibility for a course. Our district has followed an 80/20 responsibility for two co-teacher courses and 55/35/10 for three co-teacher courses in our six elementary buildings. There is no way to change the default and each individual student record will need to be changed for all teachers. This will be a very time consuming task and may attribute to more errors when uploading to PIMS thus creating incorrect records in the PVAAS system. Instructional responsibility…

Add an Option to Select Grades Courses Only
Add an option to the report to select grades courses only. Currently that option is not available and our Withdrawal Form prints out on 4 pages. The negative impact is that we cannot utilize this Skyward Report with its current options.
Add a Course Selection field to select by either Range or Individual (just like the Student Selection option). Within the Ranges we would need the option to select graded courses only.
Our expected outcome is that we would not have to create a custom form document for student withdrawals. We would be able to utilize the Skyward Canned Report.33 votes -
Auto Calculate Performance Acknowledgements
Automatically Calculate Performance Acknowledgements.
Create a program to automatically calculate performance acknowledgements. This was done by another district to use as an example. Please see attached handout from their TSUG session as well as the SSIS packages they are using.35 votes -
case load factoring using DPI number
Currently the report looked at the Disability Code and Primary Disability (Y/N) - as the fields that should be included in a Case Load Factoring report. At this time the students disability and environmental code are not a factor. I am submitting this as an RFE as it would be beneficial to have this report in skyward to manage caseloads of staff. Currently we manually have to run a report like this then add all of the caseload factoring numbers to the students based on environmental code and grade. This is time consuming for all involved. This report could help…

PIMS: Extract a list of multiple students
Often I have multiple students that I need to extract PIMS data for. Currently the PIMS extract templates only all for ranges of students or 1 student at at time. Literally hours of time will be saved by PIMS administrators if a list of students could be extracted at a time. This is common functionality in other SIS systems.
Add a "By Individual" range option and then an "Individual" button" that allows the user to build a list of students. This setup/functionality is already found throughout Skyward. i.e. The Student Information report (WS\ST\RE\SI)33 votesThank you for submitting and voting this Product Idea. I have attached a Skyward Help Doc to assist. Please let me know if you still require additional assistance. Thanks.

Additional ranges in Attendance Mass Change Utils
Would like to be able to add more than one day's attendance for a class or activity. At this time we can do one day at a time using Mass add for Single Day. Also we can only add attendance for a Class/Activity/Field Trip for one day. Going in one by one per student is very time consuming. If we could get a box for absence range...or by certain day of week that could be very helpful. EX: We have students that may leave our building during a certain period for 8 weeks and then return to finish the day.…

Mobile App Configuration
Requesting that the mobile app follow the entity configuration for Family Access.
We configured the Entity Configuration for Family Access not to show Homeroom and advisers as we did not want parents to be able to see these until a specific date. However the parents were able to go onto the Mobile app and see them in Student Information by clicking on the "I" button. Advisor and Homeroom are both listed. This defeated our purpose of wanting the parents to do the current student registration and then allowing them to see the schedules etc.
The expected outcome is for Skyward…73 votes -
SAML Relying Party Configuration
I am requesting that Skyward configure SAML for Districts that have an IDP. Minnetonka has it's own IDP - we use Identity Automation. I'd like to be able to use our SSO service to log all users into Skyward by way of a SAML integration with Skyward.
I am willing to help do the testing to get this up and running. I know there are other users that use Identity Automation for an IDP and could also benefit from this type of configuration.52 votes -
Automated Email on Home Language
This is the second Skyward School District that I have worked for that believes it would be amazing to have an auto email generate when a secretary is putting in a new student and the home language is marked something other than English. This piece of information is critical for timely screening purposes and many times the information is not communicated in a timely fashion to the appropriate people. I put this request in when I worked for Urbana and it was turned down but I am trying again. For school districts with large ESL populations this could be a…

Update Student Records for all Letters sent
The goal of this enhancement is to have all letters that are sent to parents become part of the student record. The negative impact is that now we have no record of the letter being sent and nothing to refer back to if a parent would question what they received.
If all of the reports that can be done as letters would have the same check box that the vaccine report done in letters has it would provide a well documented health record for all students. The check box for vaccines is Update the records of the students that letters…6 votes -
hall pass - include signature image and email
We would like to be able to email the Hall Pass from the Attendance tab in Student Profile directly to the student's current teacher. This would immediately let the teacher know that the student should be returning to class.
We would also like to be able to insert an image of a signature on the pass so that it is signed when emailed or printed.
The student's current teacher is displayed on the Hall Pass screen. If we could email it to the teacher either in addition to printing or in place of printing then the teacher would know exactly…28 votes -
Day Rotation post somewhere for Student/Parent
We have classes that are on a 2 day rotation and a 3 day rotation. We are able to set that on our calendar in Skyward and with our courses; however currently it sounds like it does not show anywhere for our students in their Skyward Calendar or anywhere else. The students receive their schedule and it shows the rotation day number by the course but how is the student supposed to know which day it is currently throughout the year? Currently we post the day number in the hallway but it would be nice if students could either click…

Allow multiple days attendance to be updated
We have field trips that last more than one day. We would like to have the ability under the Entry by Class or Activity to enter a date range to update. Currently we have to go and run this and re-select the field trip for each day. It would make it much quicker and more accurate (because working in the office we get interrupted 1000 times a day) to be able to run this once for a date range.
Add the functionality to select a date range for the Absence Date under Office > Attendance > Entry by Class or…10 votes -
Auto Email for Family 2 Demographic Changes
We would like to see an automated email function set up for Family 2 address changes. Currently it is only set up to send an email for Primary family changes.
With so many families sharing 50/50 custody this would create equity in maintaining accurate family information for departments such as food service transportation and teachers/staff who need to be notified of these changes in a timely manner.
Parents with 50/50 custody sometimes argue about being Family 1 or Family 2 so we want to make sure we are treating them the same in regards to communications and mailings. We feel…10 votes -
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.

Use Stu Discipline Officer in Tardy Discipline
When using attendance letters to auto generate an offense for tardies (TAR) the setup will not allow the student's assigned discipline officer to be selected. It either has to be left blank or a specific name selected. This does not allow the offense to be easily viewed by the student's discipline officer. A filter could be created for blank offenses or an auto emails for this specific offense could be created but the discipline officers/assistant principals are already inundated with emails and don't want to have to frequently change their discipline filters.
Allowing "Discipline Officer" to default to student's assigned…26 votes -

Printing Student Custom Forms in Student/Reports
Under student/reports/custom forms when adding a new template the "custom form selection" box has all the old forms that are inactive. Can this be fixed to view by the current year instead of scrolling all the way thru the list? Yes some of the forms can be printed thru data mining but it's not the actual form as we would need to add to the student cumulative folder
If the custom form is inactive then it should not be an option to select on the template.
Add the year drop down option as in other templates so we can only…

Addition of Fields for Student Custom form
We need to be able to include the following Student information on a student custom form - Home language code home language description and advisor name (typically associated with the entity).
When setting up a student custom form we should be able to select these fields to be included on the custom form. We would expect the advisor name to be the one for the default entity.32 votes
