Feature Requests

Our teachers do all of our sign-ins (no guardians sign-in) so they're annoyed that it takes multiple clicks to sign in a student. It would be great if the app could register the account that is clicking the "check-in" button so they only have to click once to check in and the app records that it was their account that checked them in.

Our parents are struggling to know who to message for absences and other information that multiple teachers need to know (we also have rotating teachers working with children throughout the day). I would love to see a feature that allows parents to post on their own child's profile so that all teachers who have access to that student can see. Chats would then be for more private messages.

Current printed menu layout differs significantly from how CV displays their current menu with some additional CACFP requirements. Needs: Adjust layout options for easier parent distribution. Option to print multiple weeks (e.g., all four weeks) on one sheet. More flexibility in scaling/formatting for landscape/portrait printing The ability to be able to customize a footer to add meal patterns (ability for program to edit on their own)

Custom Labels for Menu Items Request for customizable labeling (e.g., “½ sandwich” or “1 slider roll”) for clarity. Rationale: Helps teachers accurately serve and monitor meals without converting portion equivalents. AND CACFP Breakfast Requirements Current Issue: Several breakfast meals flagged as “non-creditable” due to lack of grain component. Request: System functionality to allow meat/meat alternate substitution for grain up to 3x/week, per CACFP rules.

The ability to create menus for all required age groups: Toddler (13–35 months) Preschool (3–5 years) School Age (6–12 years) Rationale: Portion sizes differ by age group, so menu functionality must reflect this. AND Allergy Menu Option Ability to create an “allergy-friendly” alternate menu within the system. Would streamline planning for children with dietary restrictions.

Would like to be able to link directly to calendar events for emails or feed posts. For example, we'd like to say, don't forget to RSVP for event X by 8/25/25 and link directly to that calendar event.

It would be great if we got an alert when parent update their information or added a guardian so we could update printed emergency lists as required by our state.

I would like for all staff to be able to view schedules of staff and children from the app.

active students should be the default instead of having to reset the filter every time
