  3. Mass Fee Creation: Credits and Waivers Removal Utility

    It would be nice to have a Utility to Mass Delete/Reverse/Remove Credits and Waivers applied to students. We had to manually touch several hundred of our students to correct their book bills.

  5. Mass Fee Creation: Credits and Waivers BUG

    Our district participates in a Federal program that gives us ESSER funds that pays for certain fees on book bills for our students. Our Superintendent wants the fees displayed and that they were covered by these funds for parents to see. Skyward told us to use the Credits and Waivers utility under Mass Fee Creation. This worked fine on our first year last year, however this year we ran into major issues. We clone our fees every school year so they are the same. For some reason when we ran the utility this year if a student had an unpaid…

  6. perfect attendance reports for specific periods ~ to compare what we have to submit to the state ~

    There seems to be ideas about this that are being ignored , I know each year we call about the submission we have to do for perfect attendance but cant check perfect attendance until we get the list of kids from the upload of the submission and have to check kids one by one . It seems skyward should have something that we could run by period for our secondary campuses that would elevate checking one by one

  7. Stripe

    Have Skyward integrate with Stripe. We were told to purchase RevTrak for the Food Services module and then now we have to purchase the Fee Module for a separate fee. Please integrate with Stripe as Stripe has full API capabilities.

  9. allow overlapping enrollments

    In certain scenarios, it would be useful to be able to set certain Withdrawal codes to be able to allow overlapping enrollments. For example, if an enrollment was created and submitted to our State Reporting authority in error, we may need to retain a record of that erroneous enrollment, but would need to overlap a new, corrected enrollment.

  10. Create Mass Add for Portfolio Highlights

    We add highlights for all of our HS students. Most of the time we add the same highlight to several hundred students. Currently they must be entered one student at a time. Having a mass add with the ability to utilize a processing list would be a huge time saver.

  11. at risk lep

    Currently, the Mass Generate At-Risk Identification Records utility allows the use of Criteria Codes to mass generate At Risk records for students with a LEP record. This is very helpful but the utility will also code if you have students in a Dual Language Program that are not LEP but are participating as At Risk. These non-LEP students have a LEP record, as required, for funding purposes.

    I propose that an additional "sub-criteria" option is created for At Risk Reason Code 10 - Is of Limited English Proficiency. The "sub-criteria" should allow districts to select from the list of Parental…

  12. 3 Year olds not in the PK Grad YEAR receiving Sped Services

    Year for 3K students who receive services through Marathon County Special Education. They have now taken over the Birth to 3 services for the County.

  17. Adding a character counter to comment boxes within a standard based custom report card or in teacher grade books

    After creating a Standards Custom report card, the teachers are asking how many characters fit in each comment box. I do not see a character count in the teacher grade book nor do I see anything that would allow me to find out when I add the comment box while building it. Is there a way to add available character count to comment boxes within the teacher grade book? If not I think it would be a great tool for the teacher to have to know how much space is available to make comments.

  18. Data-minable PGP

    We use PGPs to capture loads of information on students for teachers to view. The problem is that you can only view individual students and there is no report function. If the PGP were data-minable then we could run reports for large groups of students.

  19. Staff that are also parents in district that are payors. We would like to have the option as to which email the notices are being sent.

    We have staff members that are parents in the district and the payor notices go to the home email address and we would like for them to go to the schools email address. When their kids leave the district, the parents are not always checking the home emails and miss the notices we send them from the school for lunch balances.

  20. Food Service Application Processing in Skyward

    Currently when printing a pseudo application, a box shows up with information to be completed by the district. We need a way to enter and capture this information in Skyward without having to print out the application? Currently we capture the application from the parent through family access, physically print the application, complete the information to be completed by the district, and then scan the application back in!!!
