Schedule All Students Options for Ethnicity, Gender, and Class Size
We would like to build ethnic balancing. Besides class size, and gender, we would like to have ethnic balancing based on demographic data. This would be an option along with the other two (class size and gender) in which a school could select which options were enabled and in what priority to use them.

Allow Scheduling Exclusions Prior to Initializing Scheduling
It would be great to add certain scheduling exclusions prior to initializing scheduling (ie ensure two students should never be scheduled together or making sure a student never takes a class a certain period etc.) Certain items like these come up throughout the year and not just when scheduling is occurring.

Hide Teacher Names While Showing Course Requests
Please give us the option to hide teachers while showing course requests on the parent and student portals. The teachers change frequently while we are building the master schedule so we would like to show course requests without the teacher names.

Scheduling - Add "Keep Together" Process
We can currently enter "exclusions" into the scheduling module. Until now we've had few enough students to "keep together" that we just hand-scheduled those. Now, though, if we move to a restricted cohort model onsite in the fall, we would LOVE to have a way to keep siblings and ride sharers in the same cohorts if possible without having to hand check each set. Thank you!

SMS Rejected Students - We would like there to be a KEEP so we can keep rejected students
When viewing rejected students on the SMS board, there should be an option to keep students so we can work on their schedules. It's not efficient to copy paste or write down their ID numbers.

Mass Change or Add Crs Requests: add Course Request Section Packets
On the Mass Change or Add Crs Requests page, could the ability to mass add Course Request Section Packets (so the Course Request plus a specific Section) be added? In a perfect world, it would also ask if the user wanted to duplicate existing Course Requests or add a new one. And handle existing Course Requests with Sections. Maybe a popup to let the user know which student has the same Course Request and or Section already.
This issue came up during a training. The customer asked about ways to mass assign sets of sections to a group of students.

Alt. Ed Course Requests for Next Year Include Actual Course
When scheduling for next year we add the place holder courses like stated in the alt ed scheduling guides but we can't add the actual courses as well. We have to wait until the school year begins and the classes move over to the "Classes" page.
I would like to add the actual course ahead of time and be able to mass add ex. all 11th graders in English 11
More info: Our school is online only and uses Edgenuity.

Teacher Last Name and Entire First Name
When using Flex Scheduling or Staff Sections, Aeries pulls 1st initial/last name from staff by default. Please pull the entire whole first name. We have teachers with the same last name and the same first initial. This will lessen confusion for students when viewing schedules/class summary

Create a Report that Lists Students with Scheduling Exclusions
A report to list all students with SED records would be helpful. Since the SED table is copied from year-to-year, and copied from a feeder school, SED records may need to be changed or deleted.
