  1. USE OF TEAMS IN REPORTS-ATTENDANCE

    In Day Summary Report I need to print this out by Team but can only print it out by grade. If you can add the option to print by Team it would save me a lot of work. Right now I have to use a Processing List for each Team and we have 10 Teams. There are other reports that we can't use for Teams as well that if added would be great and save time and trouble.

  2. create grade buckets to import current grades into without posting

    Trying to provide local districts with daily grades for CTE students. We are able to export the current grades but are not able to import them into the local district without them posting to the transcript. Having grade buckets to import into that don't automatically appear on the transcript would be beneficial. Perhaps grade buckets that could be activated to post when needed but otherwise do not.

  3. autoemail building registrar when NSOE is approved for their building

    NSOE applications are approved by the Central office staff who then "forward" them on to the building registrars. Building registrars have no way of knowing that the NSOE approval has taken place or that it is being forwarded to them. It would be helpful if, upon approval, an auto email would generate letting the building registrar know that it has been approved and is available to them for completion.

  4. Assign security access based off student type.

    Allow access to the student tab but only have access to SPED students. We do not want users to edit the student type under ranges. For example, SPED Guidance Counselor needs access to SPED students only, not all students.

  5. Include TSDS number in Student Lookup

    Include TSDS number in Student Lookup. The enrollment emails we receive from TSDS do not include the student's name. The only identifying information in the email is the TSDS number. It would be nice to look them up by TSDS number like we can the PEIMS ID.

  7. Can you increase the maximum display number on tables from 2000 to maybe 4000?

    It would be helpful when using student browse or using the discipline browse by officer. We can utilize data in the tables without running reports.

  8. Mass Add Transcript Notes

    We'd like to use the Transcript Notes to provide more detail on students' graduation status (i.e. Diploma, HSED, Did Not Graduate) and there is currently no option to Mass Add transcript notes (or import--which would also work). Thank you.

  9. When doing the general ledger update on food service, there is no way to differentiate between adjustments and payments.

    When doing the general ledger update on food service, there is no way to differentiate between adjustments and payments. Please provide a way to remove adjustments from the food service general ledger update, or at least indicate on the general ledger update report that they are adjustments.

  10. PA Act 158 Endorsement Enhancement

    As part of PA Act 158 pathways to graduation tracking many many pathways are easy. The evidence based pathway however requires the 3 pieces of evidence from a list. While some are test score based some would be curriculum cluster based and some are milestone based so there is no single way to say any 3 combination of those items. I would like to see a way to apply the "3 items" rule generically so it can be 1 test score, 1 mile stone, and 1 cluster , or 2 test score, and 1 mile stone, etc.

    It would also…

  11. Teacher Rosters

    It would be helpful if teachers could see rosters of other classes without opening them up to teacher tracking where they then can see gradebooks, etc. Just a limited view of rosters in their building, by course or teacher.

  13. 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.

  14. 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.

  15. 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.

  18. 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.

  19. Add the generation code field to the Student Registration/Emergency Form Maintenance

    We have used this report for years to finalize seniors demographic information before final transcripts are completed. I don't remember this being a problem before but the generation code is not printing on this form.

  20. move grades to different course utility

    When using the "move grades to different course" utility, we need to be able to select which grading period/bucket we want to use, instead of it selecting all the grades periods/buckets. For instance we want to only select RC1 instead of RC1,2,3,S1.

    Also within this utility there is a need to pull in grades from another campus within our district as well. We can see those other campus grades, send them to the teacher and they do not post them.

    Can this utility be put on the grades tab for quicker access?
