Edit academic standards in Secondary Gradebooks
We are using academic standards in our secondary gradebooks. Once an assignment is created with academic standards attached and then is saved, you cannot edit any of the academic information. For example, the wrong point value is attached to an academic standard. Once the assignment is saved, this value cannot be edited. The entire assignment must be deleted and recreated. We would like the ability to edit academic standards once they are attached to an assignment.

Address Direction - Option to print after street address
The local post office has asked that we move the direction field from before the street address to after the street address. Example: 625 NW Birch St should be 625 Birch St NW. Changing every street name in our address master would take a lot of work, but allowing us to print the direction after the street address would solve the problem. We have had a lot of mail returned because of this, requiring us to hand write the address and resend.

Family change history report
We would like a report the would pull family change history, including family order change and address change. We have numerous requests to provide documentation showing where a student lived and with whom for any given date. It would be helpful to have a report that showed family information - what family they were (1, 2, etc.) and when. Also what their address was and if/when it was changed and changed from what address. Lastly, what students were attached to that family and who the guardians were at that time.

Automated email for student enrolling with existing IEP
We do not utilize the integrated IEP features of SMS 2.0, but would like to have the option to send automated emails to specified staff when a new student enrolls or re-enrolls who has an existing IEP status. This simple alert would allow procedures to begin much more quickly.

ALL REPORTS NEED BIGGER / DARKER FONT
Whether it is printing out the NSOE forms for a student's record or printing any report in the system - the font size is too small and too light. We need the ability to enlarge font size / change report format so reports and other items printed from SKYWARD are large/dark enough to be read.

Add Emp. ID from Staff record to Data Mining in areas where Teacher is listed such as Schedule.
We send the NameID or EmpID to vendors as the field to identify our teachers/staff. Recently, I needed a field that was in Data Mining. I had trouble finding it in SkyBuild so I thought I was going to have to rebuild my extract in Data Mining, I needed Emp ID (NameID) as the key for teachers but Data Mining only had Alphakey to identify the teachers/staff. We don't use that field when sending data to vendors.

Waitlist for classes currently full
A feature that would be very helpful for counselors would be a waitlist for students to go on if room in a class opens up. For example, if a student requests to take an elective class but it is currently full if we could have a waitlist feature that we can put students on that either enrolls them in the class if a spot opens or sends us an email letting us know a spot opens. It is too difficult to remember classes that students want to take and if you have multiple counselors working on scheduling you don't know…

Add notifications of what's new in gradebook for parents (newly graded assignments, etc.)
These are ideas from a parent in our district that I actually think would be fantastic additions for all parents in Family Access since I, too, once had to keep track of a scattered child's assignments. My thought is to have some kind of "what's new" feed in Family Access that would show this information
Here are his ideas:
My son has a history of not turning in assignments. On some of those assignments, he has no recollection until they show up in Skyward as missing. I keep a history of all assignments, when they first show up in Skyward,…

Attendance Mail Merge
Similar to the mail merge in discipline, if you can create a freeform that will allow to create documents that pull student information directly from the student profile.
This will be useful for all PA users in completing school attendance improvement plans which are required by the state. Users can create a standardized template that uploads fields with the student information.

LETTER ATTENDANCE TYPE
Attendance Letters are sent by TYPE code only. We need the ability to send Attendance Letters by Type AND/OR Reason Codes. TYPE It works great for unexcused absences... but when we use the letters for CREDIT DENIAL WARNING based on 90% attendance, we need to pull by REASONS instead of Type because the 90% reason includes excused absences (dr appt, college visits, bad weather, military enlistment visit, etc. etc.--there are many).

Add family by Family ID number
Allow the ability to add a family by Family ID number instead of by parent name. This would guarantee that you are adding the same family for a sibling.

Tardy Kiosk Configuration Options.
Add configuration options to allow the absent type/reason to follow the bell schedule. The bell schedule allows you to have a class start time and an absent time.
i.e. They are marked tardy if absent less than 10 minutes and marked absent if they are more than 10 minutes.

Allow skybuild to get the newest 15 Program/Services instead of the oldest.
We have students with more than 15 entries in their Program/Services and since Skybuild returns the oldest 15, we cannot create skybuild reports that have their current info. The pic show a student of whom we cannot get any of his current Programs and Related Services data (the ones circled in red). Please change the order so we have access to atleast the most recent 15.

Custom Forms - Add Skyward Fields
In the Student>Custom Forms, we would like to have some Skyward Fields added:
Advisor
Counselor
Discipline Officer
Teacher of Record
CY Homeroom
CY Homeroom Room Number
CY Homeroom TeacherWe would also like to have the option to choose how the student's name displays when we select the Student's Name field. Sometimes we will want to use the full name and sometimes we want just the first & last name.
Thank you.
