Service Learning - Allow Annual Exemptions
Our District would like to provide an annual exemption for Service Learning for the 2019-2020 school year. Based on how the hours auto-calculate, it does not seem to have the ability to do this. Can this be added to the product?
Additionally, there are other times we need to do a per-student exemption ( agreements with the student, home hospital situations, etc ). It would be a great future-feature to have on a per-student / per-class basis.

We have students that leave to other districts and then return or start later in the year and the hours are not calculated correctly. We need to ability to adjust student hours on a case by case bases.

We often have students who transfer in from other schools in our district mid year. The service learning requirement is district wide, so these students should not have their hours pro-rated. An exemption or hours override field would allow us to use the Service Learning feature.

Add security permission & update form to allow Service Learning Administrators to manually update
required hours in Aeries.Background:
Sometimes the calculation / prior year attendance does not calculate correctly AND there are cases where there needs to be exemption hours due to a school/student agreement. Schools need the flexibility to make requirement changes per-student. The permission would allow Districts to grant access to administrators on an as-needed basis.
