Stop the possibility of having 2 default seating charts for one period and add the ability to select which chart is to be the default. Currently the teacher must select a seating chart prior to taking attendance, and there is no option to specify a default. This default seating chart will be the one used to take attendance.

Allow Dynamic Groups to be Dynamic by 2+ Factors that talk to one another
For example, I would love to be able to provide a dynamic student group that is narrowed by Counselor and any students assigned to that Counselor who are in the Independent Study program. This way, anytime a student leaves the program, they will be removed from the group, but the group will always be limited to students assigned to that individual Counselor.

Street Address Management should allow mass updating of NRS field
I have a middle school site (SMS) who has many 8th graders that will feed into two different High schools. The Next school field is not populated correctly for over 400 of her 8th grade students. I would like to mass populate it to show the correct high school (546 or 556) where the student's record should roll into based on the student's current address. Also ability to mass populate school of residence.

Physical Fitness - Leave the Test Status blank in Aeries PFT since the state is no longer calculating a "pass" or "no pass"
Last year, we received quite a few confused parents due to the Test Status in the Aeries PFT screen. Since the state is no longer calculating a “pass” or “no pass,” this test status is showing as “Not Tested/Undetermined,” although the student has been tested. We want to request that Aeries leave the test status blank instead of this confusing message.

This way it reduces the barrior of filling out the correct category and allows it to be completed without leaving what they are doing.
It would be ideal if Aeries would auto sso-auth the request, so they do not…

Records Access Log - Make Reason field a dropdown
Please enhance the RAL to where the Reason field can be in the code table & specific codes be given for a drop down list for the user to choose from. It would make it easier to be able to have entries consistent with the same types of reasons without different spellings.
For example, my district uses it extensively for tracking student movement in & out of the district, when IDT's have been given, when a student has been promoted mid year, among other things.
When I query the RAL to compile an Enter/Leave report for the board, I get…

Define Required Fields by School
Allow for breaking down required fields by school site. This would come in handy when dealing with schools that are not general ed and need to ensure accurate reporting to Calpads and other agencies. One such example is our Adult Ed school in which we often have grade levels entered as 12 when they should be AD (Adult).
