Online Enrollment - Make Parent Ed Level a mandatory field
Make the Parent Ed Level a mandatory field for parents to add/update to Online Enrollment.

This can be required for Online Enrollment by turning on the "Ask Parent Education Level" setting in the admin settings. Once turned on, parents cannot proceed without populating the field.

Update the State Seal of Biliteracy process to honor the following requirements for the 2022 graduates:
1. 2022 Grads must pass the 11th Grade CAASPP ELA test with "Standard Met" or above, or they must pass a Locally Determined 11th Grade ELA test
2. If a student took both the 11th Grade CAASPP and a Locally Determined 11th Grade ELA test, the better of the two scores will be used to determine eligibility
3. If a student didn't take either of the tests during their 11th grade year, they can take the 11th grade tests during the 2021-22 year to…4 votesWhile reviewing the code for the State Seal of Biliteracy the programmer found that we already honor each of the 2022 requirements listed in this idea.

Automated days in Class Calendars for Flex Scheduling
When we create a Class Calendar for Flex scheduling, for example MTWF, it would be wonderful if Aeries could do the rest and we not have to click a little check box for every day of the school year that class will be in session. If we have already created the overall School Calendar and we create a Class Calendar for MTWF and assign it to a section, then Aeries would already have the info needed to determine the days that section is in session and needs attendance. It feels redundant to have to select each day's checkbox for each…
2 votesA feature already exists on the Class Calendar page that will allow mass assigning dates to a calendar. The Mass Select Dates button will allow mass selecting of days of the week for a specific date range. See Class Calendars documentation.

Transcript Class Rank - Ability to phase out by grade level
Currently we provide the class rank on our transcripts. We would like to begin the process of phasing this program out by grade level.

It is a “beta” feature and is only available to early adopters. It can be run in a sandbox copy of your database. You would need to contact the Support department for more information.

Flex Scheduling - Allow Sections to be Linked for a Class
Flex Scheduling is wonderful. What would make it even more wonderful would be to allow us to link sections that together make up a class - and then being able to customize that class name would be the icing on the cake. :)
We have to create separate sections for classes that meet at different times on different days, but for teachers / gradebooks / grades / schedule viewing it would be REALLY useful to let us link certain sections together so they can be managed as a whole instead of having to tweak a field on each of three…
2 votesThis is already a feature. See Class Links.

Add Spell Check to 504 Page
We have a request from a staff person to add spell check to the 504 plan. Because they print this out and give to parents for review they would like the extra help. Especially when English is not their first language.
As a workaround I suggested they type in a word doc and copy and paste the info into the 504 plan.
1 voteMost browsers have a spell check feature, the word will be underlined in red and then if the user right clicks they will see suggestions for the correct spelling.

Allow Registration Date & Time to be export from Online Enrollment Pending Database
When exporting the data from the pending database it is only pulling the registration date and not the registration date & time. Is there any way you can include the time? We timestamp all our new registration packets.
