  3. It would be great if on the message center template if we were able to add all staff for a building. Not just the teachers.

    You can use the online registration feature (for continuing students) under Families>family Access so parents can log in and update their contact information. It is set that split families can only see and update the information for their family.

    Try this Instead  ·  AdminAli DeGeorge (Product Manager, Skyward SMS 2.0) responded

    As mentioned by others in the comments, you can leverage parental consent notes and/or critical alerts to help draw additional attention to these students. We did bring this feedback over to the Qmlativ product and much like on SMS you can require acknowledgement on Critical Alerts; however, on Qmlativ we do this per student based on their explicit situation, in addition to allowing a custom note to be added to the alert that can be viewed by anyone who has access to that student indicator for additional awareness.

    Our district utilizes the student indicators for these. We add a parental consent note from the "all notes" area on the student's general>profile tab. We have an indicator set to show up if there is one of these notes attached to a student. It is more obvious and then staff can just click on the indicator to see what the note is about.

    Looking into options for adding Staff State ID to Skybuild.

    Data Mining is a tool for Student information reporting, so Staff State ID will not be added to this area of the software.
