  1. Remove 0.00 when importing a blank percentile score into Test Scores

    When importing test scores that have a blank percentile value, 0.00 becomes the value in the field instead of just remaining blank. This doesn't look very clear, as all other fields are blank except the percentile field. Would love to see a blank remain a blank in Skyward. See example.

  2. Parent to print discipline from Family Access

    Could there be a print button in Family Access for parents to print the student discipline offenses? Either one at a time or all at once (history) option.

  3. Request from teacher: Change the symbol in the gradebook for 'no count' assignments so that it is different from 'missing' assignments. They

    change the symbol in the gradebook for 'no count' assignments so that it is different from 'missing' assignments. They currently both have a star. It would assist with us needing to go back in to update missing assignments. Seeing a different symbol for 'no count' we would know that we did not have any scores for that assignment that needed to be updated. Thank you for the consideration.

  5. We'd like a way for the bus number to populate in Student Access.

    In student access, not parent access, if the student could see the assigned bus number, it would save some headaches at school dismissal.

  6. Fee Management/Activities

    When families ADD a Fee to pay for in Family Access, it would be beneficial if the names would auto-populate to Activities so we don't have to manually type them in.

  8. The Flex Report, under Grading Reports, currently only looks at the current year. Can we have it pull last years.

  9. Send course credits to state, but not counted in Skyward (Bettering GPA use case)

    It would be nice to have a way to send course credits to the state, but not have them counted twice in skyward. The use case is for students trying to better their GPA for a course. They take the course again and this needs reported to the state, but you do not want the credits doubled up in Skyward. So when you enter a "Variable Credit" on a historical course for 0.0 credits, you get errors from the IDOE saying you are required to send them credits. Maybe a flag or something could tell skyward not to internally count…

  11. Add a grade range option when setting up a Family Access Bill Code

    Our high schools are grades 10-12. After pre-transfers are turned on, 9th graders can add and pay for high school fees that are in the Family Access Bill Code Setup. This happens mostly with yearbooks, and we've added the high school name to the description, but many 9th grade guardians continue to add and pay for a high school yearbook, mistakenly thinking they are purchasing a middle school yearbook. It would be helpful to add a grade range on the setup so that we can exclude it from showing as a fee for 9th graders.

  12. Online Assignments- Lock Screen

    It would be amazing if we could lock down the screen/browser for online assignments. With all the AI out there, being able to lock it while students are accessing would be incredibly helpful!

  13. NSOE - virtual signature block on the applicaiton

    The NSOE application needs a virtual signature block and date option for districts to add on their NSOE application for the parent to enter when they are filling out the application. A virtual signature is now acceptable by the ISD auditors. Currently have to print the application and get the parent to sign it or create a custom form which isn't a professional look for an application for enrollment.

  15. CROSS ENTITY REPOPRT TO VIEW HOW MANY SEATS ARE SHARED WITH OTHER CAMPUSES.

    Create a report that will show how many seats have been shared with other campuses that have cross entity. It would be so useful to know how many seats are shared and send that report instead of having to go back into the section to see this information.

  17. Course Groups in Course Master Browse Screen

    We would like to see a column added to the Course Master browse screen for the Course Group assigned to the course. This will be helpful when preparing courses for the WI Direct Admit procedures. There is currently not an easy way to get an overview of which courses already have a Course Group assigned.

  18. Tie notes to the STUDENT and not the person who created it

    When creating a note on a student of any kind, can the note be tied to the STUDENT and not the person that created it? We have staff that created notes and when they left, for some reason, their notes did not transfer. It would be nice if the note were attached to the student so that if the staff that created the not leaves the notes stay in place.

    When using the Allow Teachers to Make Grade Change Request to Closed Grading Periods when the request are being processed under EA+>Gradebook>Secondary>Grade Posting Administration>Teacher Requests for changes to Previously Posted Grades>Mass Post Grade Changes>the default is to Post Grades for Dropped Students. 99% of the time you would not want to do this and if they don't select the option at the top to "Exclude Dropped Students from Mass Posting grades get posted that should not and this can easily be missed causing students to get credits for classes/grades that they should not get. The default for this utility should…
