Feature Requests

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.

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.

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.

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

The ability to create a printable report, for individual children, with observations only. Currently, I can only create a report with 'activities' that includes the observation report with all other notes about child. It would be great to have the observation report only (linked to IELS) to share with parents at conference time, along with portfolio.

Along side the chat feature, it has been suggested by several teachers how they would like to be able to comment or respond to a feed post that a parent made (absences specifically)

The team would like the ability to customize the automated payment reminder email that is sent to families. Some email types in the system already allow for customization in the settings. Having this same level of customization for the payment reminder email would provide the program with the flexibility to: Match the tone and branding of their other communications, add program-specific details, and ensure consistency with their parent handbook and family expectations. Request: Can this functionality be added to the platform so that users can edit the payment reminder email template in the settings, similar to other system emails?

Move "Mark Absent" to the parent feed directly or in the "options line" like billing would help families see the feature more regularly and therefore use it more which helps our center and kitchen plan accordingly.
