CALPADS added a new field to the SSID Extract file to hold a Special Education indicator as of 9/15/2020. We are adjusting our import process to handle this new indicator in a similar fashion as the English Language Acquisition Code and Date in the SSID Extract.

Please update the income ceilings so we may begin to enroll new students in the program for the 2021-2022 school year.

STU.DE only captures current enrollment and can differ from AHS.EN which is Total Days enrolled for the year

CALPADS - SELA Conflict report - Needs report options added:

1) Add option to skip Pre-school students (errors reported are invalid for PS)
2) Have report honor KEEP and SKIPS.
3) School selector when run at district, or honor Schools tab

Please make the security pages have the top row headers (with read, update, insert, delete, etc.) frozen/sticky when you scroll down so you know which one to check as you are going down.

We would like the option to display test scores by date, not with grade level headings (see image). When data is displayed by year and grade separately, they are out of timeline order. The grade headings get displayed out of consecutive order. Also, could this option be applied to filtering by Test ID?

The CALPADS Programs Reference by Student should include the Language Instruction Programs (LIPs).

Would it be possible to put the names of the extracts under the "create files" for EOY like you have had in the past? It looks a bit confusing as to which files fall under the current way it's set up.

Update security settings for No Show Manager page

Add a report that teachers can run for Attendance Notes for their classes to help track participation in distance learning

The full state Long-Term English Learner (LTEL) file from the California Department of Education has changed formats from the previous year. The file is unable to be processed in Aeries in the new format in the LTEL Import function.

Programming needs to adjust the LTEL Import process.

In some cases, where the Inactives school is set up as Elementary, and no other schools are set up as Secondary, parents may receive an error page when attempting to log into the Parent Portal. This may also occur while emulating the parent.
The workaround is to change the Inactives school to a Secondary school type.

For the 2020-2021 school year, schools are adding 'Engagement" attendance codes for teachers to mark for every students. This is in accordance with the new SB-98 CA legislation.

This idea was provided during the LACOE Attendance Symposium on 8/13/20. Teachers would like the ability to select a particular engagement attendance code and mass add it to all students then if needed, deselect appropriate individual students when appropriate thus saving time selecting codes for each individual student.

Similar to how teachers mass add assignment results in the Aeries Gradebook.

Adjust the Hourly Attendance Report/Summer report to support for Flex Scheduling and Class Attendance.

Please add the function to 'copy most recent ELPAC scores from TST to LAC. Used to be 'most recent CELDT scores' in CS.

When selecting to Mass Add a note for a date with a bell schedule that is different then the current date, the period selector under Notes is not adjusting to also look at the same bell schedule, it appears to only be looking at the bell schedule for the current date only. Adjust to display the same period list based on Bell Schedule of selected date.

Add additional IB test parts to the Fixed Codes and usysGCODs tables:

HISTORY HL
HISTORY SL
INFO TECH IN GLOBAL SOCIETY HL
MATHEMATICS ANALYSIS AND APPRO HL
MATHEMATICS ANALYSIS AND APPRO SL
MATHEMATICS APPLICATIONS AND I HL
MATHEMATICS APPLICATIONS AND I SL
PHILOSOPHY HL
PHILOSOPHY SL
SOC.CUL.ANTH. HL
SOC.CUL.ANTH. SL

Update the Contacts table so we can use drag and drop to change the contact sort order. Many of our students have their parents listed as contact #7 or #8 and we'd like to be able to drag them to the top of the list rather than having to manually update the sort order for each record.

Add the file layout for the 2019-20 Summative ELPAC Student Data File Layout to the Import Test Results page.

It would be nice if there was a weekly meeting to demonstrate revision notes or explain functionality changes (by region). This way all users have an opportunity to see how new features work or hear the benefits at the same time. Customers would benefit from a regularly scheduled Revision Notes meeting. Otherwise, Aeries team has to field individual tickets from individual customers (maybe more at one site) to explain individual features when they don't understand or when the knowledgebase has not been updated.
