  1. Adding a parent / guardian name next to the home phone number when printing the field trip roster.

    We just started using the Field Trip Master this year for scheduling our field trips. When we print the roster for the field trips, it includes the home phone number, but does not include the parent or guardian's name next to the number. The emergency contacts show the name and the phone number, so I am hoping that a primary guardian name could be added as well to the report. This would help to know who we are contacting at the home number.

  4. Attendance Labels on Standards Basic Report Card

    Need the ability to rename the "Excused" and "Unexcused" labels on the attendance summary within the Standards Basic Report Card area. Right now it is hard coded and we need the ability to rename Excused/Unexcused labels. For our district we want to reflect Funded/Unfunded instead.

  7. Discipline Graphs should Accurately Report data for Prior Year

    When running the Discipline Graph by Offense for a prior year and doing breakdown by grade it shows grades as (10,11,12,GD) instead of 09,10,11,12. I should be able to see the grade they were in during the timeframe selected not the grade they are in now. See attachment for what is returned in discipline graph vs discipline counts report. Originally submitted as a support ticket: 5945079

  8. 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. Crosswalk STAAR EOC Test Scores

    Please crosswalk the STAAR EOC test scores. State standards change, and then you have to change the crosswalk area and then we have to learn the new areas. It would be so helpful to not have to worry about this area and would save a tremendous amount of time.

  10. Homeless auto email alert

    Is there a way to have a homeless alert available for automated emails for students who leave our district and return. Per our NM state reporting, once a student has been identified as homeless in the school year, they are homeless for the entire year regardless of whether they are enrolled consecutively or leave and return. I did see we could turn on the H indicator for all students regardless of their status but that doesn't work as if a student was homeless last year, it does not carry over. Is it possible to add an identifier for Homeless?

  11. Non Binary Legal Gender

    Add Non-Binary to "Gender" drop down. We have a court document that says a student's legal gender is non binary. We only have Female or Male to choose from. Since it's now the legal gender, it doesn't fall under the Gender Identity area.

  16. Show weighted and unweighted GPA

    In the GPA summary section of a student profile, we would like to see an unweighted GPA as well as the weighted GPA that we use. Many students need an unweighted GPA for scholarship or college applications and it must be figured out manually which is time-consuming and leaves room for errors.

  17. Have a setting in security to allow access only to active students

    We have some employee types, such as paras, that need limited information for students. We would like to be able to limit this access to Active students only. There is no need to see all students that ever attended that entity.
