Add a utility or configuration setting to enable Display Other Name Field in the Teacher Gradebook
It would be helpful to have a mass add utility or a configuration option to automatically enable the Display Other Name (when available) in Teacher Gradebooks instead of the first name and middle initial. This would ensure every teacher would see/use the Other Name field if it is populated.

Legal Name and Full Preferred Name
Expanding name fields to accommodate more characters is essential. At the same time, it would also be important to add a prefered full name option for gender identity preferences so that schools have an option to "show" the preferred name in educator access plus, family and student access. This would allow options for legal name printing on transcripts and other official documents AND sensitivity for gender identity.

Preferred name available in Point of Sales System.
We have transgender students that come through the lunch line. It is quite confusing and embaressing when a student comes through the line that has not legally changed their name yet. We need a be able to have a better system than using the critical wanding messages that we use for food allergies.

Add new field to Data Mining
There is a new field that was added to Skyward that is not available in Data Mining. The field is on the E/W screen - Exclude from EOYA. I need to see how many of our students are not marked before we do the state upload but because this field is not available from Data Mining, I cannot get what I need.

Grade Level Visible When Posting Grades
Our school posts grades for seniors days before posting for the rest of the school. While you can change the display options in the gradebook to see a student's grade level, once you go in to post grades, the grade level is no longer visible. It would be great if it would carry over so then teachers would know which students are seniors and who they have to post grades for.

Add the ability to filter on special codes in the gradebook progress reports or missing assignment reports
I have several teachers that have requested a way to track late assignments. They use a special code of Late for this but there is no way to print a report for only students with late assignments. They would like this for RTI purposes .

Virtual - Courses with Students in Multiple Entities
Due to the pandemic we have now added virtual teachers, students and classes. Providing a virtual teacher at each building and each grade level is not economically feasible, due to the number of enrolled virtual students. Creating a new virtual entity is not an option due to state accountability.
This year’s solution for virtual teachers was to enroll them as a staff member in each entity. Classes were created with the virtual teacher and virtual students. Each of our virtual teachers have multiple gradebooks in each entity. For example, a teacher with five core classes at each of our six…

New Student Online Enrollment allowing a existing guardian to edit their address
New Student Online Enrollment Application allow existing guardians to update their address.
When a guardian is bringing their child/children back into the district since the guardian is already in the system they can't update their address which has almost always changed. It would be very helpful if they could change their address on the application.7 votes -

Selected Grades Report: add Student email and parent email address fields.
Would like to have Student emaill address and parent email address to the Selected grades report to make it easier to identity who to contact when we run the report. We run this for a D/F list and then contact the parent.

Fee Management - Ability to Reverse Charge if paid via web/vendor
Currently, if a parent pays for a fee/charge using our online vender/wep payment, we lose the ability to reverse the charge and have to use an Arrears code to document the refund. It would be a lot easier if we could still just do a "reverse charge" and process the refund record for fees paid online like we can for fees that were paid with cash/check.

MOI on attendance field
Can you put "Method of Instruction" on the Today's Attendance field for each student, so you can see, if the student is absent, what MOI they are instead of having to go to their profile page?

Expired Password Reset
It would be very helpful if the utility to Mass Generate Family Permissions/Passwords (WS\FA\FM\PS\UT\PP) would include the option to only reset expired passwords.
We send out letters yearly to families regarding their accounts then weekly as new students register through the school year. In this letter we include the initial login and password (blank if the parent already changed). A number of parent accounts have expired passwords since elementaries typically hadn't logged in much, but with virtual schooling we have a lot more parents trying to log in.7 votes -
attendance edit comments
We would like the option to allow teachers to edit their own comments once they have saved comments.
Our elementary schools are set up with 2 attendance periods. When the teacher enters attendance in period 1, it populates period 2.
This year with COVID we have online teachers. They can change attendance type for period 2 after the initial save, but cannot modify comments for period 2.7 votes -
Link Calendar to Attendance for Emergency Days
Currently when we have an emergency day (snow day, cold day, etc), we need to manually go into each entity and delete out attendance for pre-arranged absences, etc. When editing the calendar for these days, it would be much more efficient and so helpful if a pop-up could ask if we want to delete student attendance for specific/all entities/schools.

Mass Delete for General Staff Conferneces
There really needs to be a way to mass delete General Staff Conferences. You can mass delete Regular Parent Teacher Conferences. This would really help with clean up.

Data Mine Previous School and Previous District fields
The fields "Previous School" and "Previous District" located under the School Path tab, are not available in data mining. We have families fill this information out and there is no way to data mine it out to use or analyze. It would be extremely helpful to be able to data mine out these two fields. I would like to use them to verify new KG students have the correct entry codes for state reporting.
