  2. More options to edit Teacher Access Security

    We need the ability to remove access for weighting an assignment in Teacher Access security settings. When using category weighting and selecting to NOT allow teachers to change category or weight, this option should be disabled but it is not. Skycoder cannot be used in EA+, so an option to edit the security access is needed.

  3. We have staff that would like to receive an automated email if there has been a change to a current entry or withdrawal record.

    We would like to receive an automated email if there has been a change to a current entry or withdrawal record. There is one for when a new entry or withdrawal record is added but not when there is a change.

  4. Student Conflict Detail Report Needs a Display Period option

    When using Period Redefinition, the Student Conflict Detail report can be difficult to read because it displays the scheduling periods. There needs to be an option to print using the display period instead so the report is easier to interpret. It is already a difficult report to read, and when Period redef is set up it makes things far more confusing. Being able to see the conflicts by display period will help to be sure that courses are flowing the way that is expected. The scheduling board shows the periods by display period, so the student conflict detail report doing…

  5. Tiny Quality of Life Improvement

    On the Skyward support site the drop downs in the blue banner, Stay Current, Customer Support, Downloads, etc. in Google Chrome at 100% zoom often times when I draw the cursor down to select an item in the drop down menu the drop down menu disappears. I imagine this is due to a tiny gap between the blue banner and the drop down because when I increase the zoom to 110% or higher this doesn't happen. I don't know how much of a difference it makes to others, nor the amount of work required to fix something like this, but…

  7. Additional field on the report card

  8. OFSDP Flex Teacher Attendance

    Give teachers the ability to enter timestamps for students' Arrival and Departure/Dismissal times. Then, in the behind-the-scenes, add the minutes for each student in the Flex.

  9. NSOE application routing for cross-over grade level entities

    Allow for grade level options to be added to the path type when creating address paths.

    Currently, if two campuses have the same grade level options in the address path, the NSOE application gets kicked to the ISD instead of routing based on the Elementary path type.

    Example: We have an elementary that serves EE-3 and one that serves EE-5. The EE-3 elementary applications do not route to them if the middle school address path is for the EE-5 campus because the system cannot differentiate between the grade levels on the path type.

  11. Minimize the font size on the transcript template to allow the course codes to print on one line

    With the new requirements to include the service ID#s or Course Codes, the transcripts are looking messy and unprofessional because the course codes are printing on another line on the transcript. This is causing transcripts to be much longer than needed with the additional line for each course completed for every student. If we are allowed to minimize our font size ourselves without creating a custom transcript, that would be helpful. My hope is that Skyward will understand the need for this to be created or allowed to ensure their product looks professional and allow for updates that are required…

  12. Allow more info into the Information Report

    Adding Health Conditions and Alert Information to this report would be very helpful and vital in an emergency. This report is what is printed if DCF, LEO, or any other emergency services need specific information on students. This information report is the most useful spot our district has found to add this information and access it quickly in an emergency.

  13. Grading Report that pulls students current percentage, and letter grade before a term posts.

    To better support our students, I’d like to request a report that pulls current, unposted grades (both percentages and letter grades). Having a simplified view of this live data enables administration to identify students in danger of failing and coordinate timely academic outreach before the grading window closes.

  14. Course/Section Masters > Section Details > Teacher History - Reporting Option Needed

    Course/Section Masters > Section Details > Teacher History - a way to print these details in a report or provide these fields in SkyBuild which would include the change history transaction details as well. Screenshot included to show location and fields in that screen.

  15. Add Ltd Eng Prof students as an option to Ranges in the Message Center

    Could you add Ltd Eng Prof students as an option to Ranges in the Message Center? This would be along with Section 504 and Gifted and Talented students that are already listed. This would make it easier for our EL teachers to message parents.

  16. It would be helpful to be able to mass import Medicaid information into to the health screen

    I think it would be helpful to be able to mass import Medicaid Eligible Status, Medicaid Number, and Billing Consent status into the Health screen. It is very time consuming to manually enter this information.

  18. 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…

  20. 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
