  1. Remove VocEd Contact Hour on Transcript

    Voc Ed Contact Hours are based on the service ID supplied by the state and coded in the Texas State Specific section in the course/course master. Due to certification and other restrictions we have some CATE courses that we are unable to get contact hours funding for. Many of these courses are taught online and the credit is directly added to the student's transcript. Rather than have to create new course keys for these online CATE courses can the option to "Exclude Voc Ed Contact Hours" be built into Override Course Information in the Add on the grade tab.

  2. Add Prompt to Update Students Tied to Incident

    When users attempt to edit an Offense Code for students tied to an Incident there is no option to change the code whether it's temporary or inaccurate. Skyward misleads the users by sending them to the Offense Code screen to select a different code. The program should allow for updating all students tied to the Incident when the Configuration setting to force students to have the same Offense code is engaged. The prompt allows a user to make the change or back out of the change and should confirm which students are updated if the user proceeds to make the…

  3. Deselect all in the individual course selections

    Instead of having to go back in and uncheck all boxes it would be beneficial when setting up certain course items to be able to deselect all courses and start over. Working in CTEERS right now and I am going in multiple times as I set up the state area. I won't have to going forward in CTEERS but I would think there are other times that this would be beneficial.

  4. Educational milestones connected to Test Scores

    Goal: entry of a Test Score that meets a specific criteria automatically triggers a 'complete' date on an Educational Milestone.
    Wisconsin Civics Exam requires students to earn a minimum score as a requirement for graduation starting in 2017. We are entering it as a Test Score so it appears on transcripts along with ACT and other test scores but are also trying to include the status as an Educational Milestone so students and parents are aware that this is required. Right now when students complete the test I have to double enter.
    Expected outcome: Test Scores include a test administration…

  5. Mass Update At Risk Field

    Currently we can only mass add one record to our At Risk field. The state of KS has up to 12 options to check that qualifies a student for At Risk. Once we mass add a category ie ESOL if we get a list of another indicator later ie Migrant we can do a mass add, but it will only pull in those that aren't already marked. We then have to go in to each student and mark them individually. In our district we have several thousand ESOL, several thousand students who are marked under the Dyslexia screener and almost…

  7. Add secondary guardian contact number to display in Student Profile

    We would like to include both guardians' phone numbers in the student profile, as shown in the attached screenshot. This addition is essential for emergency situations, as individuals are currently unable to find the second guardian's phone number in the information panel. In an emergency, it is crucial that this information is easily accessible.

  8. Add student / state / alphakey ids to the monthly/quarterly report

    There are currently no student ids for the monthly/quarterly report. Any id would be a wonderful addition to be able to compare against state files for chronic attendance. Thank you!
