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.

Remove Classes from past terms from the EDIT screen on the Classes page
Classes that have ended, have had grades submitted, and their term is no longer current should not be displayed when editing a student's current or future classes in the Classes page. This clutters the Edit screen with classes that shouldn't be edited because their CAR records will be affected.

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

Master Schedule - Default View
I would love this page to default to show ALL ACTIVE sections. Our section list defaults to show ONLY ONE - the lowest section number, which happens to be inactive. It is irritating that in order to view all sections, I have to first erase the default number that appears in the search bod, and then click "Go" - see screenshot.
Additionally, I would love it if all the inactive sections were hidden by default (with a clickable box to show them if desired). Showing all inactive sections can get very confusing because we have many inactive sections with the…

Allow creating sections in SMS from an imported spreadsheet with minimal or all fields
Time Saver When scheduling is done outside of Aeries - we need a way to import / create sms sections from a spreadsheet. For example - spreadsheet must have Course#, Period, Teacher, (and optionally more fields ie: Course Max, Term, Room).

Create better logic for scheduling students with empty periods
Some of our students (especially seniors) are not taking a full load of classes. We have used placeholder courses (Unscheduled) as they must have a class in each period - however in the SMS board and scheduling process - those courses are being seen as any other course and getting placed in the middle of the day.
I'd like to see a placeholder that the Avoid Gaps in Schedule box will recognize and follow and be able to have a better logic system in terms of only allowing those at the start or end of their regularly scheduled courses.
