Performance Report - Add a "Please Sign and Return" option
Add an optional "Please Sign and Return" to be included on performance reports, so that when we send them home to parents, we don't have to stamp them individually.

Attach files to individual students
Sometimes a student will write or draw something that you want to add to their file to discuss at Parent teacher interviews or discuss with another teacher. Or, you receive a hard copy of a report and you would like to add without the having to ask for a digital copy. It would be great if there was a feature under the student profile to take a picture for an attachment in order to do this.

Add a student submissions option
Planbook lacks the ability to allow students to submit assignments. Without that, we must use another platform in conjunction with Planbook.

Reorder Attachments
It would be great if one could drag to re-order the attachments instead of having to delete a bunch then re-upload if one wants to replace an attachment near the start of the list.

It would be great to hide the assignments from Google Classroom when I"m trying to unclutter my screen while I'm working on my plans.

Color code grade overview
The gradebook should have a customizable option to color code the grades based on percentages. Example: if a grade is below 70% the box with the points should be red, if the grade is between 70% and 80% the box should be yellow. This would help identify students who struggled with a lesson at a glance in the gradebook.

Attendance - Time of arrive late or left early
The attendance feature is great. However, I do suggest you also add a button for those who left early and have a pop up option when tardy or leaving early is selected to put in times arrived late or left early. Great for parent conference time.

Admin - Ability to add attendance
School Admin to access the Attendance report for all teachers
This would allow students to check into the office once the student is considered Tardy. The office would then have access to the teachers attendance report, mark the student, and then send that student to the appropriate class. The office is the first line of defense for the teacher and this would allow the teacher to continue teaching and allow less of an interruption.

Days of School: Countdown option to turn off
I like to see the current number of days in school. I would love to turn off the countdown number of days. As a teacher I try hard not to countdown to the end of the school year. It can be very depressing to constantly be reminded how many days are left. Please let me see the current number while turning down the countdown. Thank you!

Convert Google Calendar Events to Planbook Lessons
The current integration of Google Calendar is great, but google calendar events import as planbook events which means you cannot use them as a lesson. You cannot make notes or use any of the other features that make planbook so wonderful. It would be AMAZING if you could easily convert a google event to a planbook lesson. Ideally it would remain connected to Google after conversion but even if it didn't, it would still be very helpful. This would allow someone that is a heavy google calendar user to not only import their school related events from their google calendar…

It would be so much easier to help teachers and campus admin if district admin could impersonate teachers.

Print without templates
Add a check box under the print options "Templates" just like you have under viewing so that I can print my lessons with or without the templates. I use the templates mostly for details to give a sub. I don't need them printed for myself when I make a hard copy as they are the same every time.

Mobile Apps - Portrait view on tablet

Copy or Add Year - Skip or Preserve blank lesson days
When a school year is copied to create a new year, there should be a prompt that asks if we want any "bumped" days to be copied. There are a few subjects where I have bumped several days, resulting in days that just show my templates, and I must go and delete them all.

Assignments types without weights
At this point, I cannot enter the type of assignment (classwork, homework, etc.) without assigning it a weighted percentage. I do not weight my assignments, but rather calculate final grades based on overall points earned/points possible. There should be the ability to assign the type of assignment without forcing you to weight them differently!

Allow admin to use teacher view settings
A selection for administrators that would allow them to mirror the same settings as teachers. This would help when doing PD with faculty on how to use Planbook.

Show thumbnail of image files
Currently only file names show in the list of existing attachment uploads. Often times these files will be reused in another lesson but because you can't see what the image is of the file you end up re-uploading it.l

Two parent emails and phone numbers
It is a rare household that only has one email or one phone number anymore. I need to be able to record at least two parent contacts for each: email and phone number. Moreover, if they could be customized and I could add the parent name(s), that would be even better.
