create a year overview
Be able to see all units for each subject in an excel-type gantt chart. Therefore for each week you can look and see which units should be taught that week, and what is coming up.

Class Title and Time on separate lines
I would like the class title and class time to be on separate lines. Currently they are both on the same line unless the class title is too long and the time goes to a new line. I would like to have the option to have them both on their own lines.
Currently:
Reading 8:00-9:00 a.m.I would like this option:
Reading
8:00 - 9:00 a.m.I would also like to add emojis to the class name.
For example:
📚 Reading 📚
8:00 - 9:00 a.m.2 votes -
Please allow sorting of Units by ID
Please allow the ID for units to be sorted. It looks funny to have every one of them out of order.

Combo class for split grade levels
When teaching a split grade level it would be nice to have the day broken into two columns. This way I can see what both groups are doing at that time. For example, at 9:00am my 4th graders are having whole group reading and my 5th graders are completing independent stations. I would be able to write both grade level plans and see them for the same time frame with two columns.

save a lesson for later (undated)
Sometimes I create a lesson but for some reason I don't end up teaching it or decide I need to do something else. I don't necessarily have a specific date for this lesson so I can't just move it and risk it eventually being "bumped" out of the school year. There should be a way to easily choose to move a lesson from the planbook to the lesson bank.

enable a feature that would allow teachers to disable Google Events and Planbook Events separately.
I used Google a lot. I love that I can sync my Google Calendar to my Planbook. Unfortunately, I discovered that when I desselect "Events" on my Planbook View button it hides ALL events, even the Planbook events. When I am planning for a sub I don't want the sub to see all my Google Events for several reasons. It would be great if Planbook could create a feature that would allow for users to separately deselect Google Events and Planbook Events.

Allow Admin to Create a School Unit Template
We currently use a unit planning template as a school. It is in an excel document that I have created as the principal and teams use it to plan out their unit. I would love to create it in planbook

Integrate with Jupiter Ed
Like your integration with Google Classroom, pull assessments and assignments from JupiterEd and add them to Planbook so they appear on their due date in the plan.
If the other direction is possible, allow assessments and assignments created in Planbook to be sent to JupiterEd.
Either direction would be fine.

Add two more arrows
It would be great if you could add a feature to go to the next class period in a single day while editing. I like the feature that lets me work on planning one class then go to the next day's same class. It would also help to have that same feature to take me to the next class I teach in a day instead of having to save, go back to the week view, then click on the next class to edit for that day.

Use class time when posting to Google Classroom.
When posting an assignment to Google Classroom, use the class time from Planbook for Google Classroom so that the assignment shows during that time on Google Calendar.

Hide days when class doesn't meet
I teach on a block. I want to see my week plan for a particular class, but I don't need to see empty space on my screen for the days when my class doesn't meet. It would be handy if the week view could show only days when class meets.

Include student records and a place to log tuition/fees paid
We are establishing a small Christian school and having less apps to purchase would be so very helpful. One feature we need in Planbook is to have a place for student records files. After that the only other feature would be to have a place to log financial contributions/tuition and fees paid. If this could be imported from Quickbooks directly or at the least imported from a spreadsheet that would be wonderful!

Mobile Apps - Hide "School Day" counter
iOS app, latest version. I am so annoyed that there is no option to turn off the "School Day" information at the top of the screen. This is just clutter - completely irrelevant information. Please add an option for this display option to allow subscribers to turn it OFF.

Set initial lesson status
It would be good to be able to allocate a status (from the ones I created) to a class when I create the class.
The idea is that the status (in my case: to plan) is alwys there and has to be changed manually (i.e. when I have prepared the class I change it to: ready to teach).Hope this makes sense.
