Make the lesson # in lesson banks editable
Currently, if you need to resequence lessons, you have to grab and drag the lesson and scroll all the way to where you want to place it. If there was an option to type the location # and an automatic bump down of the lesson currently in that location, it would be SO much easier!

Allow class name and times on one line
It would be nice if this was a choice in "Display options". I liked having it all on one line because then it took up less room and I could see more of my plans on the screen. Have options for the class heading. Some people prefer the Class title and time on two lines, but I preferred it on one line.

Share gradebook of linked / replica class
It would be wonderful if Planbook had the capability to link and replicate gradebooks so that co-teachers can view and enter grades for the same class.

Add a two-week view
It would be nice to view two weeks at a time for longer-term planning. The month is too long for easy visuals, but two weeks allows for easier planning. When I used a paper planning system, two weeks at a time was highly effective.

Quick add for students
There should be an option to "Save and add another" when adding students. The way it is set up now you have to click Save, then it takes you out of the popup box and you have to click add students again to add the next one. It would make for less clicking and a quicker process to add students!

Add search option to Student View
The ability for students to see all their courses at once.
It would be even better if Planbook would integrate with our SIS (Senior Sytems).
I am also requesting that students be able to hide sections as needed. For example, a student might only want to see their homework.
Adding a "search" feature for the students would be amazing. Sometimes students want to find a link or activity, but they do not know what day it was on.
An undo button.
The ability to mark as completed (student view) or add to calendar, obviously if student had ability to log…3 votes -
Archive student accounts
Because we have such turn around for students and because some students come back into our school, I would like to as an admin archive the student account so if we need to reinstate them I can do that quickly rather than asking support to do it or making them a new account.

Change color of individual notes
We use our notes to document strategies and communicate with our principal. I organize my classrooms by color for the different sections. I would love to be able to change the color of individual notes so that they match my organization system.

Unique letter grade options for each class
We are trying Planbook's grade storage for the first time this school year. We are pleased with the offered features and awesome price. But there are a few things that we are missing from other programs we've used. One thing we've had in other programs is the ability to have different grading scales for different classes. At our school we use the "traditional" A,B,C letter grades for most conventional subjects, like Math. But for things like Art or P.E. we use a somewhat more qualitative system with E for Exceptional, S for Satisfactory, N for Needs improvement. Then on the…

Ability to set No Class for entire day
We're on a 6 day cycle and I teach each grade first to 6th every day. there are days when I'm out at a conference, or out sick and they usually don't have a sub for me. If I cancel the classes using "no school" then the day of the cycle gets messed up. The only way I can do it is to go to each class (which is really each grade) and add the day manually. Should be a better way to do that!

Tab and Arrow Keys to navigate grades
When entering grades the enter button moves the cell down. I would like to be able to move to a new cell using the tab and arrow buttons like a spreadsheet. Especially if I make a mistake and want to move back up or move over to enter the standard after I enter the grade.

Mobile Apps - View single lesson
Be able to see on iPad one lesson in big font, full-screen. This would really help one refer back to one’s notes during the lesson. At present we have to choose day view and then scroll.

Search events by title and content

Quick add classes to template
Templates are great, until you have to enter 17 classes that use the same template with each unit. (Is there a better way?!) Would like to see a quick check way to add classes to the template. Each time you click the plus sign, the new class is at the bottom of the list. Need a way to click multiple classes at one time.

See same week last year on a different screen.
Make it so that I can look at two years on two screens. I like to cut and paste some things, but not the whole year. Right now this is not possible online.

Tag lessons by type (Notes, Tests, Labs, etc)
Seeing the unit in my lesson bank is great, but it would be even better to be able to see the type of lesson at a glance. A well visible tag would be a great solution to this, and they could even be color-coded for even easier identification

Copy ALL assessment information
I have heard from all teachers that it is unhelpful to have a copy button, to copy assessments and assignment from class to class that only copies the title of the assessment, but not the points, or date or any other detail, most of my teachers teach multiple sections of the same class. Please consider a copying option for all details of an assessment and assigmnet.

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.
