Allow teachers to combine their two campus gradebooks into one gradebook
Allow teachers to combine their two campus gradebooks into one gradebook. That way if a teacher has 6 classes, they don't have to manage twelve gradebooks. Or allow teachers to add students into their gradebook from another campus so that they only have to manage the number of gradebooks which correspond to the number of classes.

Add the ability to put notes on grades
Most spreadsheets allow you to add an invisible note to the entry of a cell. The presence of the note is signified by a colored corner. This could be used to explain an entry, show an agreement with the student to update his/her work, so on.
4 votesThe Aeries Gradebook has had the ability to add notes related to the student and assignment for quite some time. Somewhat recently the ability to manage this from the Scores by Class page was added, directly from the rectangle icon, as this idea described. Custom codes and freetext comments can be used.

Bring back the grade categories on the assignment menu and category % on student grade page
It is now harder to see how many assignments are given in each category. It would also be great to see grade percentages by category for each student on their individual grade sheet. (These both used to be features of Aeries, but now have gone away). These features help instructors communicate skill progress or need for remediation with students and families.
12 votesOn the 12/11/2015 version of Aeries a gradebook option found under the Options area was added of “Group Assignments menu by category”. When this option is selected for a gradebook the assignment menu will be grouped by category.

Getting rid of the window within the window for entering student grades.
Currently, when entering grades, there is a window on the web page, and teachers have to scroll up and down to find students. Teachers have to manage 2 scroll bars. Being able to see all students on 1 page is better than having to deal with the 2nd scroll bar.
122 votesBased on feedback received, we believe the “window within a window” issue has been resolved. We invite you to add any additional enhancements to the gradebook as additional Ideas.

Gradebook Terms (Fall, Spring, etc.)
Allow for teachers to set up start and end dates for terms within a gradebook. This would then translate to the parents by grouping assignments into the corresponding term based on the assignment's due date. This would also generate a final mark for each term in a gradebook. Trimesters should be supported as well.
