Add Student Grad/Grad Year to ReportOur 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. 8 votes

Ability to import Teacher PICAt the beginning of each new year we deal with adding PIC's for teachers into Skyward. We have a spreadsheet that we build all the demographic information into their staff information but there is no way to include the PIC. This makes for double entry and increases the probability of error. 
 If we had the PIC as an import option we could do it all at once and eliminate the double entry and reduce the possibility for error.45 votes

Security for Critical Alerts on Emergency TabWe would like the security for the Alert Information on the Emergency Information tab to be broken out from the rest of the page. We would like staff to be able to enter emergency information but do NOT want them entering Critical Alerts without prior approval. I would like to be able to separate the 2 to only make it available to a few. Currently that option exists if you are using the path ST/SI/IF/AI. Security for the Alert Information on the Emergency Information tab to be broken out from the rest of the page.

Add Option for Custom Forms in Family AccessFamily Access needs a Custom Forms option. More and more districts utilize custom forms to store information create Online Forms and use forms during registration and new enrollment. Once submitted or completed parents don't get to see that information. An option should be created so that a secure option can show the form in Family Access under a Custom Forms tab which should also include a Configuration option to rename the tab if the district prefers to call it something other than 'Custom Forms.' So in essence there's need to be a security group because a lot of districts will… 38 votes

Allow multiple days attendance to be updatedWe 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

Different background color for new yearThe 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

Email all teachers at one time for Family AccessAdd an option to "Email Teachers" button to Family Access similar to the one that is in the Student Profile area. It would be easy for a parent to email all the teachers as a group rather than one at a time. Skyward stated this is not available but thinks a RFE would be a good idea. 
 Ease of use for Family Access guest to communicate in numerous situation with all scheduled teachers at one time. Example: notification of issues with: health situations at home request for homework update on child etc.97 votesThere is an option in the Family Access Entity Configuration area to “allow guardians to send message center messages”. If enabled, guardians can post messages to all teachers via the Wall/Home. If this solution will satisfy the customer need – we will void/remove this idea from the Product Ideas Portal.

Extract students WITH PASECURE IDsGoal: Ease of making corrections. 
 If there is a need for correction ie name change; birthdate typo; gender reassignment etc. we should have an export file created to re-upload to PA Secure ID to make the correction.
 Currently we can only pull student data if the PA Secure ID is missing.35 votes

Reset Tardy Counter on Tardy KiosksWe restart the count of tardies for students at the start of a new semester so their sem 1 tardies don't carry into sem 2. They all start from 0 in the new semester. The Tardy Kiosk receipt that is printed still shows a cumulative count for the school year. Please consider adding the functionality of being able to reset the counter on the Tardy Kiosks at the end of a semester. 11 votes

Default building codes on StaffWhen adding new staff to system the default building code should automatically be assigned to a staff member. 
 Currently it is not and when our export to Skylert goes out staff members are NOT being entered into their assigned building.
 There is a work around currently but you have to add the staff and then drill down on the staff member to add the building code again to the entity.6 votes

Share Option in Data MiningWould be nice if Data mining reports had a sharing option like other report templates have. As not everyone needs to see all datamining templates being utilized. Some templates are created for just 1 person to use as needed but other users don't need access to same template or information within that template. 
 The creator would have the option to either share the template for everyone to see it the way it looks now or not share the template.17 votes

Auto Email for Family 2 Demographic ChangesWe 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

Grade Percentages added to Grade CardsI 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 &… 29 votes

E/W History in SkybuildCurrently Skybuild only allows the current E/W recod to be exported. We would like the option of including historical E/W records as well. The problem is if one record was open yesterday but today that record was closed and a new one was opened the proper withdrawal information for the previous record is never transmitted. 
 If it were possible to include E/W History in Skybuild we could export all E/W records for the year including their proper withdrawal dates and codes. Otherwise the recipient system will just get the new record and have to guess as to what values to…8 votes

Link the Counselor Automatically f/Entity ScreenThe goal is to automatically link the counselor's name that is on the entity screen to the Counselor column in the Guidance "Entry By Date" screen when a student puts in a request to see the counselor. With this enhancement the counselors will be able to see who their student is immediately instead of trying to figure it out. We have a large HS and it takes time. With this enhancement it would save counselors a good amount of time of thumbing through students trying to figure out which ones belongs to them and more time spent on the students… 17 votes
