  2. pLEASE ADD the state id to the Directors monthly Vocational Class FTE report so we can compare it to SWORD/EDFI for TN

    Please add the state id to the Directors monthly Vocational Class FTE report so we can compare it to SWORD/EDFI for TN. Otherwise, we have to go through multiple conversions to find a common key. This is not a wish, this is really necessary to do the job.

  3. update parent phone number only

    Security update to this menu path WS\ST\TB\FA\FA

    The update would allow the edit of a guardian(s) phone number view only access for the address
    We only want select staff to change addresses but if we take away this security it takes away the ability to edit guardian(s) phone numbers too.

  4. Option To Open Skyward In Same Tab After Logging In

    I currently use SSO to sign into Skyward but also have the Allow Use of Skyward Password logon option as well.  When I'm in Preferences, I have an option "Open Skyward in Same Tab After Logging in" which is great. When I click on the question mark next to it, it states "This only applies when logging in with a Skyward or Network Password.  This does not apply when logging in using Single Sign On (SSO)." Is there a way you can make this available for the rest of my users who do use SSO but don't have the option…

  6. transport miles shown in Family Access (along with route and stop)

    In order for students to be eligible for free transportation or for a parent to know if they need to fill out a parent paid contract, parents need to know the miles transported (which comes back from Riteway and gets loaded into Skyward). However, miles is not shown in Family Access. Miles needs to be added as a field in Family Access Busing :
    Miles Route Type Route Stop Type Bus Stop Arrives Days

  8. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.

  12. 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?

  14. Allow Customizations to the student "mobile ID" within the Skyward app.

    It would be great if schools could customize the student “mobile ID” within the Skyward app. Some examples of customizations include adding the school logo and adjusting the fonts (making them larger).

  15. Exclude Zero Balance Due from Indiana Statements but Include Credit Balance statements

    When printing the Indiana Statements it would be helpful to exclude ONLY the truly Zero Balance Due statements. If I un-select the Option "Print statements with zero balance" it does eliminate those, but it also then does NOT print statements for accounts with a Credit Balance. If I run the report wide open, I get Credit Balance statements and a ton of Zero balances. Currently I'll have to run 2 sets of statements. 1. For just regular balances >= .01 2. For credit balances <= .01

  16. Can we suggest having the option to add a directional field as a suffix for the addresses in Q? Our districts feel it is very important that

    We would like to propose the addition of a directional field as a suffix for the addresses in Q. It is crucial for users to have this suffix field since they need it to match the SIS with the E911 files provided by the counties. Without the directional suffix field, they are unable to achieve an accurate match.

  17. Teacher Access - IEP Forms

    We created an IEP form that would be used as both a summary of a student intervention, as well as a tool for progress monitoring. The form is similar to the internal form that can be created in the RTI module of Skyward.

    The form can be created by the IEP case manager and tailored to the student's needs. It can also be viewed in educator access plus by the teachers; however, we are unable to give teachers editing access to this form so that they can easily put in data for progress monitoring. I inquired to see if this…

  18. Ability to check all classes when adding an assignment

    For teachers with a lot of classes it would be helpful if there was an option to check All Classes when Adding an Assignment. If they class is grayed out do to it not matching with length or category the check all classes would skip them and only select matching classes.

    Ability to hide previous ended classes in Add Assignment with gradebook. With teachers that have a lot of classes such as semester, tri or quarter their can be a lot of classes that have ended on the Add Assignment screen and they have to scroll down to be able to view all classes and check the boxes for the current classes if they want to add an assignment to them as well.
