HOURS FOR SENIORS
I am submitting this in hopes that something can be done. We use hours on our certificates for seniors when they graduate (example 1200 out of 1485 hours completed). These hours are calculated by the amount of days they are enrolled minus any unexcused absences. (2.75 hours a day = 495 hours a year for 3 years) This is done for each shop they were in if they happen to change shops. It gets difficult if they withdraw and come back in the middle of the year because I have to subtract those days. I have been doing this by…

It would be helpful if the system would warn that there are unmet obligations in online registration.

parent notification
I would like to request that rather than a number pre-populating when a contact is selected as "notified" (in Office Visit) that we are able to choose from the list of numbers listed for that emergency contact and the option to choose email if we have emailed parents. The option to chart multiple contacts would also be helpful as custody situations. As it currently functions the system pulls in the first number for the contact. The ability to select the appropriate number we called is extremely important as we need to be able to properly identify the number that we…

User Defined Online Enrollment Report
It would be extremely helpful to be able to pull the family contact email address as one of the fields to Select to print in the User Defined Online Enrollment Report. Right now I can only pull family address and phone and majority of our communications are sent via email address.

Adding column for total attendance
Teachers are requesting a column to be added to the screen where they can input grades for the marking period. This column would contain total days absent for each student. See the attachment to see exactly what screen. No impact from it not being done. Not an important feature just a request.
Just a column being added so teachers can view total attendance for each student when entering marking period grades.28 votes -
Add Student Grad/Grad Year to Report
Our Principals rely heavily on the Chronic Attendance Report. It would be very helpful for this report to include student grade level/grad year and/or the ability to sort by grade/grad year. It would also be helpful if a range of percentages could be entered and only those students print. I currently have to print it for each grade level put it in Excel and delete the students with less than 10% absent.

Discipline Bullying
To prepare for the civil rights report next year is there a way for the victim information in discipline to be required for any bullying offense? This would ensure that the information for report will be accurate.

Ability to import Teacher PIC
At the beginning of each new year we deal with adding PIC's for teachers into Skyward. We have a spreadsheet that we build all the demographic information into their staff information but there is no way to include the PIC. This makes for double entry and increases the probability of error.
If we had the PIC as an import option we could do it all at once and eliminate the double entry and reduce the possibility for error.45 votes -
Do not allow inactive students to be charged
We would like for inactive students lunch accounts not to be charged accidently thru Point of Service. We are having an issue with current students typing incorrectly their keypad number and students who are not longer with the district are being charged.

Security for Critical Alerts on Emergency Tab
We would like the security for the Alert Information on the Emergency Information tab to be broken out from the rest of the page. We would like staff to be able to enter emergency information but do NOT want them entering Critical Alerts without prior approval. I would like to be able to separate the 2 to only make it available to a few. Currently that option exists if you are using the path ST/SI/IF/AI.

Add Option for Custom Forms in Family Access
Family Access needs a Custom Forms option. More and more districts utilize custom forms to store information create Online Forms and use forms during registration and new enrollment. Once submitted or completed parents don't get to see that information. An option should be created so that a secure option can show the form in Family Access under a Custom Forms tab which should also include a Configuration option to rename the tab if the district prefers to call it something other than 'Custom Forms.' So in essence there's need to be a security group because a lot of districts will…

Allow multiple days attendance to be updated
We have field trips that last more than one day. We would like to have the ability under the Entry by Class or Activity to enter a date range to update. Currently we have to go and run this and re-select the field trip for each day. It would make it much quicker and more accurate (because working in the office we get interrupted 1000 times a day) to be able to run this once for a date range.
Add the functionality to select a date range for the Absence Date under Office > Attendance > Entry by Class or…10 votes -
Modify application add process
Allow parents to select ADD application without having to select a student first. Allow them to select Add application and then if there is more than 1 student prompt them to select a student.

Different background color for new year
The goal is to have a visual reminder when we are working in new year scheduling (instead of current year). There have been times we have inadvertently changed something in current year when we thought we were in new year. Have a different color background would prevent that.
I would like a visible distinction between new and current year to prevent errors to making changes.28 votes -
Email all teachers at one time for Family Access
Add an option to "Email Teachers" button to Family Access similar to the one that is in the Student Profile area. It would be easy for a parent to email all the teachers as a group rather than one at a time. Skyward stated this is not available but thinks a RFE would be a good idea.
Ease of use for Family Access guest to communicate in numerous situation with all scheduled teachers at one time. Example: notification of issues with: health situations at home request for homework update on child etc.97 votesThere is an option in the Family Access Entity Configuration area to “allow guardians to send message center messages”. If enabled, guardians can post messages to all teachers via the Wall/Home.
If this solution will satisfy the customer need – we will void/remove this idea from the Product Ideas Portal.

Extract students WITH PASECURE IDs
Goal: Ease of making corrections.
If there is a need for correction ie name change; birthdate typo; gender reassignment etc. we should have an export file created to re-upload to PA Secure ID to make the correction.
Currently we can only pull student data if the PA Secure ID is missing.35 votes -
Reset Tardy Counter on Tardy Kiosks
We restart the count of tardies for students at the start of a new semester so their sem 1 tardies don't carry into sem 2. They all start from 0 in the new semester. The Tardy Kiosk receipt that is printed still shows a cumulative count for the school year. Please consider adding the functionality of being able to reset the counter on the Tardy Kiosks at the end of a semester.

Default building codes on Staff
When adding new staff to system the default building code should automatically be assigned to a staff member.
Currently it is not and when our export to Skylert goes out staff members are NOT being entered into their assigned building.
There is a work around currently but you have to add the staff and then drill down on the staff member to add the building code again to the entity.6 votes
