Multiple Custom Views
It would be nice to be able to save multiple different custom views.
Sometimes I like to look at just the overviews for a a week of a single class... Other times I want to see the plans for all my classes without the overviews. Sometimes I want to see all the overviews for a single day... or the detailed plans for a single day WITHOUT the overviews.
As the software works right now, I can save ONE of these as a preference, but have to set the others up by hand when I need them.

Show first name on seating chart
I display seating charts for students to know where to sit in my computer lab. First names are easier for younger students to read/recognize.

Overall Grade - Option for points rather than percent
I teach in a French American school and our grades are out of 20. It would be nice if we had the possibility to change it to facilitate other grading systems.

Automatically increase a number by one when copied
I would love to be able to write an entire lesson or assignment, and have the numbers increase by 1 automatically so I don't have to edit every single entry. Other planners do this by having special characters around the number to increase.
IE Day 1: "Complete Lesson 1 in your packet"
copy through the year results in the exact same text now, I'd love to have it be: Day 2: "Complete Lesson 2 in your packet"
Day 3: "Complete Lesson 3 in your packet"

Enter grade as Reading Grade Level
Please allow other ways to record grades. Sometimes on assessments it's not a typical grade. I cannot record it as 15 right out of 20. Sometimes, for example, an assessment is of the reading grade level. The child reads a passage, answers some questions, and that determines his grade level. So one day he might have a 4.1. Another day it might be a 3.8. This is NOT out of 100 points or 12 grades and so on. I just want to record and track the grade level.

Allow grades to be entered and view as a letter grade
I like to enter grades using points, as your gradebook is set up, only I like to view the grades as a letter grade. That way I can enter grades, and see what letter grade to put on the student's paper. Also, there are times when I want to override the points and bump the letter grade up or down. If letter grades were part of the pop up menu, then I could select the letter grade.

Allow equal size Events
Allow us to set Events and calendar items as equal size blocks to match the equal size lessons. As it is events and calendar items push equal-size lessons far down on the screen. Please allow us to set these events and calendar items (especially if they have long notes) to equal-size blocks to match our equal-size lessons to keep everything lined up on our screens without large gaps.

For new Alternate Day, default to existing schedule to save time
When working with alternate schedule days, it would be a time saver to not have to type the times again since sometimes it is just a matter of which classes meeting, but the times are the same.

Automatically link all lessons between classes
I appreciate the "link lessons" feature, but for those who have duplicate classes, it would be nice to set a particular class to automatically link to its duplicate by default. It would save the steps of having to click the dropdown and manually link each lesson each day.

Student Assignment Tracker
When students create an account and are added to my lesson plans page they can see all my plans. I think it would be beneficial for them to have the ability to make a "To Do" checklist for them to keep track of what assignments they still need to complete.

Show edits for shared lessons
I share my planbook classes with another teacher. I would love to see when and what edits they make to our shared classes. Similar to the "suggest" option when sharing a Google doc.

Notes for the day
A small area below the date where I can put in short notes for the day regardless of class.
Things like
"colleague X ill – substitute"
or
"meeting at 3 pm"
"Parent meeting"
etc.
It should be visible at all times, unobtrusive but clear.0 votesAllow Notes and To Do to who at top/bottom of each day

Allow a "Class" to be added to a non-school day
I would like to post debate tournament information in a class rather than an event, so I'd like to make a class that meets on Saturdays. I can't currently make Saturdays class days because that messes up my alternating day schedule. Using an event doesn't work because I can't control how long the event expands the way I can with a class block--and I don't want all that extra space at the top of my week because Saturday has a long event.

Add filters for Events
I often manually enter some events, no school days, conferences, etc. However, I also import our school's public Google Calendar. Right now, there doesn't seem to be a way to see those events separately so that I can see and/or edit the ones that I entered (since I know that I can't edit those imported from a Google calendar.
It would be nice to be able to see or sort them separately in the events section.

Allow for a previous schedule to be reused
We are starting a 6 week rotation where we have one schedule and then we switch to a different one. We will then repeat the previous schedule.

Student View - Allow print from list
We are using this for a homeschool hybrid program that meets two days a week and the students like to have one subject printed on one page which you can do from the teacher login but not from the student login. My son has seven subjects so he has seven pages with each subject having a week's worth of assignments on one page. It is super helpful.

Allow a start and end date to copy a lesson to.
I have a bank which contains unit plans (for 9 weeks of material). It would be nice to copy this to my daily plans by going to the copy button, selecting my bank source and being able to choose the start date and end date for those items.
