  1. Print Tardy Slips For Students

    Create the ability to enter a student as being tardy and then click on a button that would print a tardy slip for the student to take to their classroom. The printer would be a small one similar to a DYMO LabelWriter 450 Turbo). The pass would need to include the fields that we enter infomraiton into (name/tardy code/comments/reason for tardy...). We waste so much time writing out slips for students and then having to enter them into the system. This would be a HUGE time saver.

    • make it easy to integrate NetClassroom and/or FAWeb logins with other systems.

      It would be ideal if a student could log into NetClassroom (or NetCommunity) and then have easy access to Outlook for the Web, Blackboard, or other widely-used systems. I know custom APIs could probably be developed, but most small schools can't afford that.

      • Have option to see grades and skill set by class, side by side

        When I am inputting the Tri 3 grades, it would be nice to see my class at a glance with their grade and their skill set all in rows. I don't want to have to keep switching back and forth to see the class or go student by student.

            • Improve iPad functionality

              When trying to enter grades on my iPad, I try to click on the box where I want to enter a grade, but nothing happens - even after repeated attempts.Works fine on my desktop or laptop computer, but I sure wish I could use my iPad to enter grades (or take attendance).

              • You really need to do something about the automatic time out feature. The program should automatically save the work being done.

                The automatic time out feature is very frustrating. The program should save grades being posted when it times out. Losing the grades being entered when it times out is an extremely poor feature of this program.

                • Add a feature that keeps track if parents open the report card.

                  We would like to be able to create a report that could tell us if a parent has logged into NetClassroom and opened their childs report cards or not.

                    • By clicking this link a teacher should see a “preview” of his or her class page as it appears for a student. A teacher should see at least class announcements, Class Documents and Class Assignments as they appear to a student in the “Class Details” view in NetClassroom

                      • Report of class teaching minutes per year

                        Would like to have a report that calculate the teaching minutes per class based on the Scheduling Calendar. This would allow school to see how holidays etc impact the teaching minutes per class and is important data to have.

                        • Find an easy way to compare grades from midterm or a progress report to easily track improvement (or lack of improvement).

                          It would be wonderful to be able to easily glance at a child's progress over time instead of just looking at the final grade. I would especially like to compare the midterm grade and the final grade.

                          • How about a way to send attachments via e-mail FAW?

                            I use FAW for most of my communication with parents; even though I know how to post docs in FAW, it would be great to use e-mail to send them as attachments instead. It would save a lot of steps for me and for parents (and students!).

                            • move the save button to upper left instead of upper right, or at least add one upper left.

                              Move the save button to upper left instead of upper right, or add another one at upper left. If the window is not large enough, we can't even see the save button. That's ridiculous. If we can't have auto-save, at least make it easier to find and hit the button.

                                  - Have all the parents, who have been given an account, actually accessed their account?
                                  - What percentage of parents use their account at least once per week?...per month?
                                  - Can we determine how how many access a specific feature, for instance, could we measure how many (and what percentage of total) have checked their online student billing statement?

                                    • Attendance report to show students who have reached preset number of tardies or absences but no letter yet generated

                                      Parents are notified and disciplinary actions taken once students have accumulated 5, 10, 15 tardies (or absences). Reporting currently shows who have reached these levels but we would like to know the NEW names daily who have not yet received a letter home. Report is currently cumulative and we have to cross reference list from previous day.

                                      • Create a user option for a permanent current fiscal year view in Activity tab - Student Billing 7

                                        Under User Options, in the Activity Tab, create an option that allows a saved view of only current year activity in the Activity tab in SB 7. Currently a user is only allowed to filter by dates within the student's record, and has to re-do the filter with every student record.

                                        • Put file folder labels (Avery template 5366) on your drop down label menu for printing student labels

                                          There is no option for printing file labels from Blackbaud registrar's office.
