Activities and Awards – Add 'More Info' Option and Display Inactive Fixed Code Descriptions in Read Mode
Currently, the Activities and Awards page does not have a 'More Info' option to view a record's full details in read mode — users must open Edit mode to see all data elements. Additionally, when a field contains a descriptor code that has been marked Inactive or 'No Longer In Use' in Fixed Codes (such as ACT.PCR Code 03 – IBC Failed, which was removed from TWEDS for the 2025–26 school year), the description no longer displays — only the raw code value is shown.
We are requesting two related improvements:
1. Add a 'More Info' option to Activities and…3 votes -
Analytics Field Value Indicator — Automatically Populate Threshold Options for School-Based Fields Such as STU.CU
What is happening now:
The Field Value Analytics Indicator type requires threshold values to be manually added to the Update Code Table (Table/Field at School = 0) before they appear in the threshold dropdown. For fields like STU.CU (Counselor Number), which reference school-based teacher numbers (TCH.TN), this means districts must manually enter each teacher number as a district-level code entry before the indicator can be configured. There is no automatic resolution from the Teacher (TCH) table.Why this matters:
STU.CU is populated dynamically from TCH in all other areas of Aeries, so districts do not expect to need a separate…3 votes -
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!

Mark Contacts Confidential From Other Contacts
We need the ability to mark specific contacts as confidential and hide their contact information (name, phone, email, address) from other Parent Portal users, including biological parents who retain educational rights. This is critical for students in foster care, where a parent may legally access grades and attendance but is not permitted to know the foster placement details. Currently, entering foster parent contact information exposes it to the educational rights holder, preventing us from creating appropriate portal access for foster parents and ParentSquare. A role-based or contact-level confidentiality setting would allow foster parents to access necessary information without disclosing their…

Support CSU Direct Admissions (SB 640) – Data Export / Eligibility Classification
California Senate Bill 640 establishes the California State University (CSU) Direct Admissions Program, which will require districts to provide student academic data to support CSU admission determinations. CSU and CCGI have not yet released technical or logistical guidance (e.g., data specifications, eligibility calculations, or submission process) for SIS vendors or districts.
This idea is to track potential Aeries support for CSU Direct Admissions once official requirements are published.3 votes -
Graduation Status Letter: Enable Multi-Language Translation for Subject Areas on Graduation Status Letter
Subject Area names on the Graduation Status Letter are currently pulled directly from REQ.SA as raw text, which does not support translations. To fully support non-English Correspondence Languages, an enhancement is required to store and retrieve translations for Subject Areas.

Allow “Exclude Expired Accounts for Staff Data” to ignore Short-Term Substitute UGNs created via “Create Substitute Teacher Accounts”
Ignore Short‑Term Substitute UGN accounts created by the “Create Substitute Teacher Accounts” function when applying the “Exclude Expired Accounts for Staff Data” setting, so these short-term UGNs do not trigger exclusion, and the STF record is still included in Staff API results.

At-Risk Nightly Update Process Using Incorrect Date for Program 409 At-Risk Record for Student Truancy
When the At-Risk Nightly Update Process is enabled and evaluates students for At-Risk indicator of Truancy, the Student At-Risk Indicator and the Program 409 record are populated with date the nightly update process is run. If the Truancy Date Met is prior to the date the process is run, the Student At-Risk Indicator and Program 409 records do not reflect the correct date when the student met the definition of Truant. The nightly update process will be updated to use the Truancy Date Met as the start date for the Student At-Risk Indicator and Program 409 At-Risk records.

Add Options to the Auto/Mass Parent portal Creation screen
Please add configurable options that allow districts to define the criteria used when auto-creating or mass-creating Parent Portal accounts.
In addition to the current hard-coded requirements:
- CON.EM populated with email address, and
- CON.AP is set to Y,Please include the ability to use additional fields as criteria:
- CON.CD (Contact Type) – specifically codes P1 and P2 for parent/guardian
- CON.LW (Lives With)These additional filters would allow districts to properly identify actual parents/guardians who should receive an automatically created Parent Portal account.
Currently, the system creates accounts for any contact listed, regardless of their relationship to the…

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…

Option to Configure Immunization Logic for Students 18+
Provide a District Settings option that allows districts to determine how immunization compliance is applied for students aged 18 and older. This would give districts flexibility to align with local policies and practices without requiring additional exemptions or manual workarounds.

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.

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.

Add Attendance Based Grades field to Grades Page
Enhance the Grades page to include the ability to edit the Attendance Based Grade (GRD.ABG) field directly on the page. This will streamline the grading workflow by allowing users to make updates without switching pages so that the Attendance Based Grades page should be used exclusively for the initial assessment following each semester.
