Teachers Create Grade Codes
Allow teachers to create a personal code equal to a number. In a previous platform, I was able to create a code NHI for not handed in. This was more accurate than a zero and more informative than a red box.

Allow Rules to apply to rubric gradebooks
Allow teachers the option to create rules to drop a certain number of low scores from each category (or standard) in a rubric-style gradebook. This would remove those scores for consideration from the averaging (or linear regression) calculation. This could be a district or teacher setting.

Gradebook - Mass edit or drop assignments that are recurring
This would allow the teacher to change a recurring assignment if needed or delete a recurring assignment if something changes. For example if you entered the score as 20 points but need to change it to 25 you can for all recurring not having to do it for each assignment going forward.

Separate "First Name" and "Last Name" for "Auto Assign Seats" in Seating Chart
On "new seating chart" field, include an option for "auto assign seats" by first name or by last name instead of just "By Name" (Currently if you do "By Name" it sorts by first name)

In Gradebook "Comments", add a teacher generated comment bank
For teachers that regularly use the comments section on the assignment for student feedback on assignments that may not have a physical document to comment on, it would be great to be able to generate a personal comment bank. I currently have these on a doc and copy/paste for my regularly used comments.

Allow Aeries to remember which Google Classroom section is it is associated with
Give the ability to associate a gradebook with a particular Google Classroom. When you are importing grades you have to select which Google Classroom you want to choose an assignment from. Aeries should be able to remember which Google Classroom each gradebook should reference instead of asking each time.

Allow posting grades to students, not parents until later.
Situation: Students' parents have high expectations. Student failed a test. I want to allow student to see grade at home so student can process the grade (also, trying to avoid tears in class as many would rather be able to cry about their grade, but not in front of everyone and sometimes they can't help but tear up a bit). If I post the grades, student can see it to process, but parents can also see it. It's a student's grade. I want to have the ability for only them to know for a period of time before parents are…

Allow the comment field from the single "Assignment" page to expand
If I am entering scores by assignment, the comment field is barely an inch and a half wide, so that what I am typing quickly scrolls out of the visible space. If I am entering a comment from the "Scores by Class" page, I can easily see half a paragraph's worth of comment, as opposed to the few words I see from the Assignment page. This is particularly frustrating because in a single assignment, the comments are often similar and being able to read more of the comment would make a copy/paste/slight tweak situation far easier. Please allow an option…

Create a data page that surfaces all relevant data that the SPED teacher needs to fill out IEPs!
Makes grades, state testing scores, transcript progress, contact information and attendance show up on one page! Prevents the hunting and pecking, especially if the teacher can customize it and be a shortcut.

Show unexcused absence for individual period
Create a separate number in the unexcused absence box that distinguishes between full day and single period. This would alert parents, teachers, and advisors when students are cutting individual classes

Allow selected all categories in gradebook rules when using weighted categories
When using weighted categories, allow all categories to be selected under gradebook rules. Currently, this seems to be available when using non-weighted grading.

More options for Emailing Progress Grades to Parents
The option to email parents Progress Grades at different intervals than weekly only. This would be a nice feature to email parents after a grading period. For us that would be every 5 weeks. The reason is weekly is too frequent. Parents disregard them more often then if they received an email after quarter grades or mid terms for example.

Option to Override Minimum Score
I have the minimum score set to 50% but I would like the option to assign a true zero if a student plagiarizes or otherwise does something that makes the 50% minimum just not fair. Can there be a letter code or something to override the minimum score?

Add buttons to make it easier to move between assignments in "Add an Assignment" and "Scores by Class."
Enable back and forward buttons to switch between assignments in "Add an Assignment" and "Scores by Class" pages. It is very difficult to have to "Save and Close" to open another assignment to make changes, especially since Google Classroom assignments don't import correctly.

Allow the Aeries Gradebook to automatically update the "total points possible for an assignment" when it gets changed
Please allow Aeries gradebook to update student scores with a new total points possible for an assignment when the assignment is updated and scores already exist for that assignment. Please see attached photos of the discrepancy.

Making it easier to see if assignment grade is viewable to parents
There are some assignments or times when I don't want it visible to parents, but it is not easy to see which ones are and which are not.
So a code in the scores by class view or in the manage assignment section (like you have a place to show if grading completed or not.10 votes -
"Extra Credit" Gradebook Assignment Issue
Gradebook Assignments: Prevent anything but numeric values to be entered as a score if the assignment is an "Extra Credit" assignment. Only allow teacher to enter numeric values and not % values.
When % values are entered for an "Extra Credit" assignment and then the assignment is changed to a regular assignment with a Max score, the score is not adjusting correctly.
