  1. Update Online Course Request

    The current online course request structure does not match well with how IUSD does course requests. The current system requires students to select courses from specific subject areas and then offers them the option to select an alternate for that course.

    This is not ideal as it only allows a course-by-course alternate, rather than for prioritization.As the number of electives expands and course options grow wider, students often have three, or even as many as six, "electives." Some of these electives might even meet other subject area requirements, such as taking AP Stat and AP Calc.

    It would be better…

  2. Allow Report Card Type code value to be longer

    Currently STU.RC is limited to 3 characters. This is not enough report card types if we have to create an individual report card for each special education students. COD.CD is limited to 6 characters, and I can probably make that work, but even that will be tight.

  3. Aeries API and OneRoster API - Limit by School

    We would like to provide school-site contracted vendors access to Aeries via:
    -- AeriesAPI
    -- OneRoster

    Aeries needs a way to:
    1. Limit the access to select schools during the upload/ API call

    1. Ability to track API login history / upload history ( IP and date )

    2. Ability to set Date-Ranges for access / upload ( to accommodate demos )

  4. Public Course Catalog, by School

    Better search/display of the Courses in a 'Course Catalog'. Ideally it would be a form inside of the
    User/Admin/Teacher/Student/Parent portals, as well as publicly accessible. Parents and students would like to
    see the full course description in a clean & clear way to digest the course catalog when they are making
    course requests.

    Instead of exporting the course catalog from Aeries and posting separately online, we would like to direct families ( current, future, & past ) to a PUBLIC link that does not require a sign-in to search courses.

    We would like it search able by subject, department, pre-reqs,…

  5. Parent Portal - Email Reconfirmation Option

    Add in a way to force re-verification of parent portal username / email accounts after a set time.

    Issue: Parents are not updating their Parent-Portal email address ( username ). Since we use this email for Teacher communication through Aeries, this causes both bounce-backs and communication problems.

    -- Yearly / Set date of execution.
    -- Parent would get an email with a single link ( no VPC needed again ) to "re-verify" their email.
    -- If the parent didn't verify, parent portal would 'lock' for access and prompt options:
    ----- 1. Re-send verification to email
    ----- 2. Update Email &…

  6. One-Click - Aeries Record Export - For Formal Legal Requests

    Single click button to export ALL student record information a given student.

    -- This information would step through all possible reports.

    -- This would also include raw csv/tsv files for tables.

    Ideally this could be zipped-up and downloaded by a single user account. This would be used to satisfy a Legal records request.

  7. Reduce Size of DOC Table - Nightly Process / External Storage Support

    Nightly process to either :

    -- Compress and/or reduce the dpi of documents found in
    the DOC table.

    -- DOC table link-able to another storage platform for cross-year storage to eliminate duplication during roll-over ( examples: Another external DB, Google Team Drive, Amazon Glacier, Share Point ).

    Goals:
    -- Reduce the size of the Aeries Annual DBs
    -- Improve daily performance
    -- Allow for better backup & retention policies.

    Background: In school year 2018-2019 we started using the DOC table to go 'paperless'. While this is a good
    feature for our staff, it caused our DB size to balloon well…

  8. Hide Schedule for Future Term - Improved Logic

    -- Add another option to hide Classes during summer ( no active terms )

    -- Update logic for "Hide Currently Scheduled Classes for Future Terms" to only show when school is in
    session based on 'Terms.aspx'

    -- Add a date range when classes/ teachers can be seen by parents

    Background
    During summer parents are able to complete re-registration. Schools do not want their schedules/classes/teachers to be show to parents/students. The feature above works during active terms,
    just not during summer.

    In order to hide this information, we must change "Portal Groups" for parents & students so they can not see…

  9. Aeries DR - Disaster Recovery for On Prem Clients

    Ability for Aeries to keep a hot-spare backup of on-prem AeriesSQL data in the Aeries Hosted Cloud.

    1. District would need a way to send data to Aeries nightly

    2. Ability for Aeries to verify SQL backup was received / checked

    3. Ability for Aeries Hosted to be turned on after an issue

    Would be an added cost, but would provide Districts a solution for Districts experiencing an emergency ( Fire / Cryptolocker issue /
    Server failure / extended power outage / network infrastructure issue ).

  10. Course Requests - Pop-Up Confirmation Message

    Add ability to setup 'pop-up' confirmation message for certain courses where there is a requirement.

    Example: If a student selects AP English III, we would something to pop up that states "If approved / accepted to this
    course, I acknowledge and agree to complete the summer assignment(s)."

  11. Allow Lunch Count for period attendance schools

    Currently lunch count can only be taken at elementary or flex schools that have daily attendance. Taking lunch count in a high or middle school would be desirable. For Flex and Secondary schools with period attendance, there could be a setting denoting the period to take lunch count.

  14. 2-Mark Standards Based Grade Report Card

    Allow for a 2-mark Standards Based Grade (SBG) report card. Currently the report card formats are fixed to either 3 or 4 marks. This does not accommodate elementary schools who are semester based, or issue grades only two times per year.

  16. Single Page Elementary SBG Report Card

    Allow customization of the elementary report card, to allow for a single-page SBG report card. This would be the same as the current 2-page 2-column format, except on one single page, with the comments on the first page. Very useful for schools that have just a few standards to report on.

  18. Print work permits in mass

    Ability to print all work permits at one school site, instead of having to print one by one. Or at least a report with all active work permits per site. Department of Labor requires a report of all active work permits.
