Allow students to delete and rearrange classes.
My students have built their own schedules by adding classes. However, if they add one by accident or their schedule changes, they are unable to delete the class. It would be helpful if they had more control over their schedule.

Show student pull out schedule
As a 1st grade teacher, some times is hard to keep track of the related services schedules. it would be great to have a way to add this schedule (not as a whole class thing) so when im planning its easier for me to keep track

Add class/student to To Do
I'd like to be able to sort and view my to-do tasks by class. This feature is already in Notes, but it should be in tasks as well.

Enhance student announcements
I would like to suggest some suggestions for the Student Announcement feature:
Show a note in the teacher admin that an announcement exists. This could be a simple box at the top of the screen with "Student Announcement Visible". Then, clicking on the link will take you to the announcement.
An announcement section. It would be nice to have canned announcements that can be saved and reused again.
3.Ability to set the start date/time and end date/time of a given announcement.
- Ability to show specific announcements to given user/group.

Copy bullets from Google Doc, text does not wrap
When I copy and paste text from a Google Doc into my lesson plan that contains bullets, my text does not wrap. Therefore, when I go to print the lesson the text runs off of the page. If I clear the formatting it will work, but I lose anything that was bold text, underlined, etc.

Bar graph of standards taught
I wondered if there was a way to incorporate something that I am doing with many schools to analyze the gaps in the standards being taught. At this point we export their standards, then create a spreadsheet from which we create a bar graph of the standards taught in the year. We then can visually see which standards are being taught too much or too little or not at all. The teachers have great conversations over these visual standards and determine what needs to change.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this work and consider adding…

Keyboard shortcut to switch days
When I click on a class to see the full view of that day's lesson, I can go to the edge of the box and click an arrow to go to the next day, or the previous day. I'm wondering if it would be possible to also add an "Up" and "Down" arrow to be able to shift to the next class that day? That would be really helpful!

Update current day highlighting automatically
Whenever I leave planbook logged in overnight, the highlighted portion on the current day remains on the previous day unless I logout and log back in again. It would be great if it would automatically update at a certain time--midnight would make the most sense.

Add dark mode on Web and Apps
With dark modes becoming so popular on websites, on apps, and on operating systems as a whole, it seems like an oversight here! This should be implemented in all forms that Planbook exists.

Add an option to modify attendance options
I need to be able to track more than what is currently offered in the attendance tab.
I would like to add options such as early dismissals, excused/unexcused, and notes to this section of the site.

Export events to Google calendar
I would like to have my planbook events show in my google calendar. My personal google calendar will show in planbook but i would like it to go the other way also. These are things like staff meetings, no school days, school events, etc.

Performance Report - allow standards average
Our school has gone to standards based reporting and I would like to input the levels 1 (not meeting grade level), 2 (progressing), 3 (meeting), 4 (exceeding) and get an average for students for each reporting period.

Quick assign students to a class
Allow Specials/Enrichments Teachers to add students by CLASS, not by a lump (I have 201 students!).
I'd love to be able to click on the class, and add students from there. Is there a better way to add students, so I don't have to pick them out of a giant set for my five individual classes?

Only show Google Classroom assignments in class box
Include Google Classroom assignments within the class box instead of making a separate box for every assignment.
Sometimes I have multiple assignments due for a single class period and don't want a separate box for each one. They should all be included in one box per class per day.

User defined codes in gradebook
I love the gradebook. I'd like an option where I can create my own codes. For example, if a student isn't in our room because of a behaviour issue, then I'd like to put NIR (not in room) under an assignment or SH for sent home. I'd also like to have an option where I can just put a checkmark that it was completed or one of my codes for why it wasn't.

Allow student grouping tags
Add a feature that will allow for teachers to identify testing subgroups when adding differentiated strategies. This would allow a quicker, easier way to provide evidence of intentional differentiation for subgroups (Gateway or Academically Gifted, 504, IEP, African American, ELL, Native American, etc) as districts are beginning to require that teachers have this documented in their plans.
