Allow parents to upload student photos
Allow for the ability for parents to upload a student picture. This is useful for new incoming 9th graders since there won't be a picture day this year. There are alternatives, like creating a student document and requesting it that way, but there isn't a way to restrict file size/type/etc. A feature could be added that would allow for auto-resizing etc. that would be a benefit to a lot of districts this coming year.

Academic Plan Enhancements
Making the Academic Plan more reflective of what is on the Graduation Status page would make it a much more useful tool.
- We have students attending more than one high school concurrently (either a comprehensive and a credit recovery or a comprehensive and a virtual). We would like to be able to view a student's current and planned courses at all schools on the AP.
- It would be less confusing to show the credits completed on the AP instead of the credits needed (so it would match what is on the GS page)
- Courses that have a…13 votes -
Gradebook sort needs to be adjusted for GBK.PD > 9
Change the Gradebook sort to not use GBK.PD and instead use Start Time of the first section linked to the Gradebook. The gradebook sort is incorrect for gradebooks with gradebook period greater than 9. This is displaying incorrectly on the gradebook reports, dashboard and other various areas in Aeries.

Emergency Card Option to Print Custom Text
In the parent data confirmation you can add custom text to your report cards. If a parent doesn't have a printer then we have to print the emergency card for the parent and there is no way to add that custom text. I would like the option to be able to add the custom text to the Emergency Cards that are printed from the admin portal and then choose whether you want it printed or not.

Allow Teacher and User Account Name Changes on Staff page
Allow Admin users to edit the Teacher and User record Last Name and First Name information from the Staff Page. This would make it possible to do a name change in one place instead of having to go to three different places to do it

Prior Year Grade Report/Transcript Changes - Auto Update Future Year Transcripts and Report Card History
When a grade is changed, users are given the opportunity to update the transcript (grade history). When a grade is changed in a past year, it would be useful if users were given the opportunity to both update the report card history (and have that roll forward to the new year) and the new year's transcript data, too.

Providing secure surveys through parent portal
We always seem to run into issues when conducting surveys through Google Forms––we don't want to require our parents to have a Google account, but then that limits our ability to narrow down our Form configurations. On the other hand, we really don't want our surveys to be spammed or misused, etc. We really would love to collect secure, accurate responses when surveying parents.
Having a custom survey feature built right into Parent Portal would be ideal: secure and direct.

College Request Page - Printing to Colleges
Two Issues:
When selecting the Print Transcripts button on a student's College Request page, although re-directed to the Transcript Report form to make selections, the student must be re-selected from the student dropdown. Users should not need to reselect the students as they were directed to this page from the student's College Request Page.
After printing the transcripts to colleges, the print tag does not clear. For a registrar, they must undo for all the colleges and monitor this manually. That's a lot of clicking.
"It didn't work this way in CS."

On the School Name dropdown when in Aeries and also when logging into Aeries, can the sort be by School number instead of alpha
I would like the option to choose how the school dropdown list sorts. It currently sorts alpha by school name and I would love the option to change it to sort by school number instead.

Behavioral Emergency - Add Date Filters to the Behavioral Emergency Report
Since the BER table contains the full history of incidents for students, we would like to be able to filter the Behavioral Emergency Report by a date range, so we can easily find only incidents in the current school year

Add Secondary Student Data (SSD) information to API
Please add data from the SSD (Secondary Stu Data) table, specifically AVID data, to the API. It would be much more intuitive to pull this data from the API vs directly from the SQL

District Attendance Letters - Grace Period Until SART Meeting and Sort Options
Adding a Grace Period option would REALLY help our attendance specialists stop having to peruse Letter 2 attendance letters for possible deletion due to grace period conditions not being met.
One more suggestion if I may...It would be great to have the option to be able to sort district attendance letters by Letter Number, then by School...and alternatively by School, then by Letter Number when printing.

Attendance notes for engagement penalty
There is not a great option to identify which students are at penalty for "engagement" which we are recording in the attendance notes columns. Please consider options including how we might 1) identify that a student might be at penalty and 2) run reports to identify infractions. If you allow teachers to select a box at the top of the column to indicate that activity type was prescribed that day, an unmarked box would indicate penalty and would help be pulled into a count of non-engagement. We have the ability to pinpoint significant attendance issues but not engagement issues. Please…

Summary of Students by Teacher and Period Report does not honor KEEP
From Trainers: With districts using Scheduling Groups and Use Codes to identify various cohorts, the Summary of Students by Teacher and Period Report needs to honor a KEEP so that the report can be used for mid year scheduling.

Copy Scheduling Results to SEC & MST - give a more descriptive warning message.
On the Copy Scheduling Results to SEC & MST give a more descriptive warning message. We direct them to look at School Options for terms to be added, when most of the time it is actually a SMS section that is missing a term value in SMS.SM.

Link Siblings to Asset Information
Could you add a feature, field, where you can link an asset to siblings. For example, we would like to know which students (siblings) are assigned/linked to asset Hotspot 201. Since Hotspots are assigned one per family or more than one if needed.

When schedule changes are made to IEP students, check for % of Special Day qualifying classes and update program code (STU.SP)
Students who have over 50% of classes categorized as SPED classes require a change in their Programs code for attendance apportionment. When counselors make changes, or new enrollees fall in that category, the ability to update program code and attendance enrollment would be great.
As it is now we rely on manual spot checks periodically to maintain accuracy of program codes.

Increase the Max for the Days Past Due Date To Include
Increase the Max for the Days Past Due Date To Include scores in the Google Classroom Sync. Right now the max is 21 but our teachers accept work through the end of progress period. Currently the max is 21 days and 0 equals unlimited. It would be nice to have a higher max value so we could tune it to fit our District's needs.

Making Schoology rubrics work with SBG
Many schools use Schoology now, and while Aeries allows you to grade multiple standards in one assignment with individual scores, in Schoology - you can only add one rubric per assignment and then each row gets added together. So if you have a 4pt rubric with 3 rows it will send Aeries 12 points for that assignment. This not only doesn't line up with most people's rubric configurations in Aeries but it also muddles the scores for each standard into one final score so students and teachers can't track progress on individual skills. I did ask Schoology to see if…
