When you chose Skyward, you chose a partnership over a purchase, a user-centered solution over a canned system, and a better experience over the status quo.

  2. Space to add more than 5 locker combs

    Space to add more locker combs. We have locks for lockers that have 7-8 combs. Currently Skyward only allows 5 combs to be entered so we have to skip the combs that we can not enter into the system.

  3. Please make "other name" exportable in the export file builder for use in outside applications like Smartpass

    We integrate with other apps via Clever and other tools and would like the option for "other name" to be an exportable field.

  4. Add ACC INSTR in Special Programs to the Mass Add/End Utilities

    Please add the ACC INSTR (for accelerated instruction) option in Special Programs to the Mass Add and End Utilities for Special Programs. I've looked and ACC INSTR is not an option in either location in the Mass Add or End utilities. Thank you.

  5. District to District request multiple students via processing list or range by school code

    When using district to district, it would be very helpful to be able to pull in demographic and family information from our local districts for multiple students attending our Career Center. The ability to use a processing list or select a range by school code to request multiple students at once would be extremely beneficial.

  9. alternate student name

    Is it possible to have a space for a student's preferred name and run reports using the preferred name? We have several students using different names than their birth name in Skyward and it would be amazing if we can see their preferred name so we are not dead naming them.

  10. Search by legal name

    It would be great if we could search for a student by either their legal name OR other name and have it show up without having to go into Student Filters.

    Sometimes it is hard to remember which is the legal vs other OR if a student even has a different legal name that we need to be looking up by.

  11. Links to use for importer to portfolio

    Please add the state ede number to the link to use for the portfolio importer. With all the different test report we send to parent if any available link to a student was offered we could import the files. Right now the ACCESS score reports only list the MARSS number (state number) so we cannot link them.

  12. Include Bus Route Information on Student Roster and Student Information Report

    It would be helpful to include Bus Route Information on Student Roster and Student Information Report.

    Districts send these reports home at the beginning of the year.

    It would be nice to include this information for parents.

    Thanks

  14. Creating a utility to mass remove student indicators

    Can a utility be created to mass remove student indicators? For example, we use the Dr. Note Required indicator when a student has reached so many absences. We then remove this indicator at the end of the year as students start fresh every school year. It would be helpful to be able to run a utility to remove them rather than go in and remove each one individually.

  15. Sticky Notes

    It would be extremely beneficial (almost critical at times) to have a "sticky note" option in Students - Students Profile. Have an icon that resembles a notepad / sticky note pad that would allow you to create a personal individualized "note" on a selected students profile. The note would be only for you to see and is not part of the student record. The note would only be linked to one student. The note instantly opens every time you enter that students profile, until you decide to delete it. You can also add or delete the text in the open…

  17. Student Browse - Grade View

    In the Student Browse, using the Views: of "Grades", it only shows columns for Semesters. Our middle schools grade on Quarters and a Final. Options for selecting the appropriate Term would be great. Thanks!

  18. We need the ability to capitalize a letter in the a student's name.

    We need the ability to capitalize a letter in the a student's name. For example McDougal, currently Skyward does not consistently allow the "D" to be capitalized. We need to be able to input a student name exactly as it appears on a birth certificate. This impacts every category listed above but I chose "Student".
