    Hi everyone, we have begun development updates to provide additional functionality to better track a student’s legal name when they identify with another name. An identity tab will be available within the Student profile where a student’s legal name information can be maintained and pulled from for state reporting needs. This will then allow the preferred name to be entered as the student’s profile name and be represented throughout the system. We will also be looking to provide options on report cards and transcripts to designate which name you’d like to print.

    Thank you for the continued feedback and support of this idea!

    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.
