    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!

    I might add, we don't allow teachers to override the office attendance, so mass assigning Virtual Present to students will make it more difficult to track students who should be marked absent. This will lead to tracking attendance outside of Skyward.

    I agree, it should be part of Skyward. As a work-around, you can add this to SkyCoder on the Future Course Master and Section Master pages.

    Future Course Master

    //9889 is current year, 9049 is next year = these are skyward menu path ID's
    if(document.getElementById("HomePageMenuID").value=="9049") {
    document.getElementById('pageOuterWrap').style.background = "#00FF00"; //green
    }

    Future Section Master

    //10112 is current year, 10113is next year = these are skyward menu path ID's
    if(document.getElementById("HomePageMenuID").value=="10113") {
    document.getElementById('pageOuterWrap').style.background = "#00FF00"; //green
    }

    Assigning CY fees for these students creates a bad PR scenario for us and for Skyward. I don't understand how it makes sense that Skyward would do this.
