  3. FAMILY ACCESS ATTENDANCE

    *The suggestion was to only show and give the school day time options vs. the full 24 hour period since so many of our parents don't notice the a.m. / p.m. times especially 12:00 a.m. & 12 p.m. There are numerous errors due to this.
    *Also the "All Day" box, is there a way to highlight, make it larger or change the default for the "All Day" box. It is kind of shadowed out and I don't believe most parents even notice it.

    Please let me know if these issues can be resolved.

    Thanks,

  4. Skybuild for Special Programs for Early Education

    I receive a file from my early childhood direct that was exported from Eleyo. That data is already coded there and would be helpful if I could import it into Skyward for state reporting. I looked at Skybuild but the only options for import under the special programs is Method of Instruciton and Migran.
    It would be really helpful to be able to import the special programs record and the parent info record from my Eleyo file.

  5. Hide Bus Stop Information from 2nd Family

    We would like to have the ability to hide bus stop information from the 2nd family. We have a custody issue that requires us to allow parent #2 to see student information, other than their address and phone number with parent #1. Through busing information, parent #2 was able to see where parent #1 and the student lived.

  7. Mass add students to course/class utility needs to allow deselecting students who do not need tobe added to the target course.

    The mass add students to course/class utility needs to allow deselecting students who do not need to be added to the target course. It would save time and there would not be a need for complicated work arounds that can affect credits and gpas.

  8. Assignment score distribution reporting

    A way for a school to report on the assignment score distribution percentages by school, teacher or class. Also multiple years. So instead of just running a report on the number of F's. A report that can look for students that earned 50%-59% overall for the class. Currently the only way to look at that is by expanding the individual teacher or class in the EA+\Teacher Tracking.

  9. Sections of classes being able to be set up for conference not just the whole course

    It would be awesome if each section of a class can choose to be set up for allow for conferences. We have our exploratory classes set up for 2 sections, one MWF the other T, Th because we pull some kids out for specials, some kids are then in both sections using only one to do the grading. So currently when we set up the conferences both sections show for the parent, we would like for it to only pull for one section.

  11. Special Education -Add an Event Auto Email for when an IEP or Eval is Unlocked

    It would be very helpful to have the option to add an Event Auto Email option for when an IEP or Evaluation is UNLOCKED. Currently, there is an option for when they are LOCKED but not for unlocking them. For districts that allow special ed staff the security to unlock them, it would be a great feature for a director, school psych, admin assistant, etc... to get a notification that someone has unlocked an IEP/Eval so they are aware and if needed, they can verify that there is justification for unlocking it.

  12. Links to use for importer to portfolio

    Please add the state ede number to the link to use for the portfolio importer. With all the different test report we send to parent if any available link to a student was offered we could import the files. Right now the ACCESS score reports only list the MARSS number (state number) so we cannot link them.

  14. Include Bus Route Information on Student Roster and Student Information Report

    It would be helpful to include Bus Route Information on Student Roster and Student Information Report.

    Districts send these reports home at the beginning of the year.

    It would be nice to include this information for parents.

    Thanks

  15. Library Card field added to the 'Skyward Field to Use' in Custom Forms.

    Our district utilizes the Library Card field to track the issued chromebook for the student. We are wanting to create a custom form to handout to students and would like the Library Card field to be available as a 'Skyward Field to Use'. This way the number will automatically populate onto the form.

  20. Endorsement Progress with In Progress

    Allow for endorsement progress to calculate in progress and next year coursework, so the report feature will tell if a student is on track to receive an endorsement. Another option is to allow the career plan to print the "requirements of declared endorsement" met field.
