  1. Teachers enter standards in standards based grading.

    I would like the ability to enter my own standards or learning targets in standards based grading just like I can create my own assignments. Currently it is set up that I would need to convince someone at my district office to turn on standards based grading and set up all the standards/learning targets for my classes.

  2. Include College Credit Only courses (Course Level 23) in the CCI College Credit measure

    The College/Career Indicator (CCI) College Credit measure currently counts only Dual Credit courses (Course Level 24) and does not count College Credit Only courses (Course Level 23), so students who complete College Credit Only coursework are not reflected in the College Credit measure even though the 2025 CDE Dashboard Technical G

  4. Next Year Calendar/Terms

    Add a "Push to Other Schools" feature to the Next Year Terms page like the Next Year Calendar page has. And add the NDY and NTM tables to the "Push and Pull Setup Tables" page.

  5. Delete/Drop Multiple ATA records

    Allow for multiple students to be selected and dropped from ATA instead of individually having to use the edit button to manually delete a student from ATA. Especially for the ELOP program, students may not need to be moved to new session, they just need to be dropped completely, and the current options don't allow for deletion.

    Once they are selected for delete/drop, a warning pop up could appear, also noting that students with ATD can't be dropped.

    See image attached.

    Thanks!

  6. Analytics (LCAP Dashboard): Support new SBAC/CAST Achievement Level Descriptors for 25/26+ without altering prior-year labels

    In Aeries Analytics (LCAP Dashboard), SBAC charts currently display legacy achievement level wording (Exceeded/Met/Nearly Met/Not Met). With CDE changing the terminology for 25/26+ results to Advanced/Proficient/Developing/Minimal, Aeries should update Analytics so the displayed descriptors match the correct testing administration year.

    To avoid confusing or misrepresenting historical data, Analytics should support year-aware descriptors (e.g., legacy descriptors for prior-year administrations and new descriptors for 25/26+). This may require introducing a new or versioned Analytics metric/label layout for 25/26+ while keeping the existing one for historical reporting.

    Why this matters
    Districts want Analytics wording to mirror official SSR verbiage and avoid retroactively relabeling…

  7. Suspension Letter Text Editor to look at CON

    Currently, the Suspension Letter Text Editor pulls data from STU.PG for the primary guardian.
    The suspension letter always creates one letter addressed to the student’s Primary Guardian (STU.PG) and uses the student’s address from the Student record (STU). In a split family household this is not conducive.
    Additional letters are generated for Contacts with Mail Tag A (CON.MT = A).
    If a Contact’s name and address match the Primary Guardian, that contact is skipped to avoid duplicates.

    Request:
    Please update this report so that it is purely Contact-driven (CON) rather than relying on STU.PG. This will ensure all mailing logic…

  8. Ed Fi Sync Null Errors - Add more details

    Provide more details on which student is generating the error with a null value. The error message 'Value cannot be null' is not very descriptive when troubleshooting the error.

  9. Provide a demo database or queries to establish one so that staff can create training materials

    As Aeries has removed the demo instance with randomized data, districts require a method to create bespoke training materials on their own, such as covering specific processes and methods of using and interacting with Aeries within the district. Such training materials must not include FERPA protected information, thus the requirement for a "demo" or "training" sandbox with non-student data, eg the Screaming Eagle schools in the now removed demo instance of Aeries.

    How this relates directly to Aeries as a product: District personnel must be trained in the effective use of Aeries, available documentation does not and cannot cover all…

  10. Uploaded Documents by Parents

    Many time the parents are uploading documents that aren't labeled. Is it possible for Aeries to assign a title to the document provided based on the field it is uploading it to? This would save so much time.

  11. Requesting Date Fields in HIS for Hand Entered Courses on the Transcript

    For state reporting, districts are required to report all high school credit courses completed during the current school year in the PEIMS Summer submission. When students complete high school credit courses outside of the regular school day schedule or virtually/online, the completed course information is manually entered to the transcript - there is no course section in the master schedule associated to the completed course. This in turn causes an issue for state reporting as there is no means to indicate the Begin Date indicating when the student began the course, only a Date Completed is available to indicate when…

  12. Create a STU field that flags if a student has an IEP or 504

    Create a field on the STU page that flags a student with an 'I' or a '5' depending on if they have an active IEP or 504. This will be similar to how a lot of districts utilize the STU.U2 field but it would be automatic rather than manual upkeep. This STU field needs to be queryable and an option in Student Groups so that districts can utilize the field the same way they utilize the U2 field.

  13. Support HomeRoomTeacherNumber API Endpoint for Schools Using StaffIDBasedCounselor Option

    The HomeRoomTeacherNumber endpoint currently pulls from the STU.CU field. For schools using the StaffIDBasedCounselor option, this field is replaced by STU.CNS, causing the endpoint to return 0. Enhance the endpoint logic to support STU.CNS when this option is enabled, ensuring compatibility across scheduling configurations.

  14. Staff That Have Not Created a Gradebook for their Classes Report

    We need a report to identify staff members who have not yet built a gradebook. The report should include the following details for each teacher at each campus:

    Course

    Section

    SEM Term

    Gradebook Number (GBK#)

    Gradebooks that have not been created should display as null or blank in the report.

  15. CAPSDAC - Allow Elementary scheduling

    Elementary scheduling type does not support course-level attributes on the TCH record.
    Add a Core/Proficiency (TCH.E3) field that could be coded with "P" for preschool class. This designation could ensure the Elementary scheduling Teacher record is properly identified and included in the CAPSDAC extract.

  16. Discipline Distribution Report – Prevent Duplicate Counts for Concurrently Enrolled Students

    The report currently counts a student’s ADS record multiple times if they have more than one STU record due to concurrent enrollment. Joining ADS to STU only on ID inflates totals. Adding STU.SC = ADS.SCL resolves the issue by ensuring each incident is counted only once per school.

  17. No Show Setup - New Prior Year Exit Default Date

    I have struggled for years with the issue of having the correct No Show date be used - because the No Show Wizard does NOT help our users make the correct choice.

    So, Here is my solution proposal.

    Modify the No Show Setup:
    https://support.aeries.com/support/solutions/articles/14000070848-no-show-setup

    Have two configurable No Show dates
    - Prior Year Exit Date
    - Current Year Exit Date

    Then the No Show Dialog that appears when selecting the No Show Code on the Demographics page, can evaluate the STU.ED and choose the correct default:
    If STU.ED is within the current school year - use the configured "Current Year…

  18. 504 Dates - create a rule to force correctly entered dates

    504 Dates - create a rule to force correctly entered dates i.e. effective date = meeting date and leave date one day prior to the new meeting date, and the next review date being one day earlier and one year later.

  20. Socio Economically Disadvantaged Query

    Be able to run a query for the SED with "DISADVANTAGED" extended field without having access to the FRE table. We have 30 schools that need to run various queries for grants/county/state programs and they do not have access to the FRE table but we would like them to be able to run the SED Y/N because there are several markers that make a student eligible for SED not only FRE table. Then not being able to run a query for SED because they don't have access to FRE.
