1. Teacher - Mass Enter Attendance - Virtual Present

   Indiana teachers who teach students virtually must now enter Virtual Present each day for each student. Since Skyward is hard coded to mark students Present, it will lead to a great deal of inaccurate data.
   We can now add additional columns for teachers on their attendance page.
   It would be great if teachers could click on the Virtual Present header to have it auto fill Virtual Present for all students.
   To add some complexity, we also are currently in Stage 4. This means 1/2 of the students are virtual Mon and Tue, the other 1/2 are virtual Thu and Fri and everyone is virtual on Wed.
   It would be great if teachers could somehow group students so they could mark students Virtual Present correctly.

   Thank you for the feedback! With the release of June Addendum 9 (10/1/2020), PR 4495470 has added a Select All option within the header of each attendance option/column setup for teacher use on the Attendance by Name screen. With this, teachers can click on the link to mass apply the appropriate option to all students, make any minor modifications as needed, and save their class attendance.

   In addition, PR 4506708 was completed in Addendum 9 to make the MOI column sortable. In the event you have Method of Instruction records set to differentiate these students, teachers can sort these students together.

   I hope these new options assist teachers in their daily attendance entry, but please let us know any other feedback on the topic. Thank you!
