Feature Requests

When a parent/guardian marks a child as absent, it would be helpful for the assigned teacher to receive a notification of the student's absence in the app.

It would be nice to be able to generate a w-10 tax form.

Hi, In response to a recent tragedy in which a child was left in a car after the parent forgot to drop them off at school, I was wondering if you would be able to create a feature in which an automatic notification asking parents to confirm an absence and perhaps a reason for the absence

When a staff person or a parent creates a feed post, there is no way to reply or comment on the post. This causes us to have to go into the chat feature, but once in the chat feature, there is no way to determine what someone is replying to. It would be amazing if the feed was set up like Facebook, where you can comment directly under a feed post. This would keep conversations together because right now, it is hard to keep track of all the chat conversations

Give an option for programs a student is enrolled in to be visible to parents or not be visible. I make programs to help me organize and target certain parents so I can email them for example recruiting them to ceratin programs. I don't want parents to see that they are in the recruitment program. Obviously I can make a different name but it would be cool if we had that option Right now it only gives the option to make it visible in the app or not. but if you choose not to make it visible then even in the staff app it isn't visible

Would love if a separate Menu option could be made for Resources. We're trying to have Playground be the central location for our school's communication, but it's tricky with Annual Calendars, Snack Menus, etc. that need to be readily accessible to parents and they have to sift through their feed or find it buried at the bottom of the Paperwork tab in the View-Only Resources section. When parents open their menu tab, it would be helpful for us to be able to point them to see "Resources" as an option, along with the current menu options like Billing, Paperwork, Calendar, etc.

Be able to see all staff schedule on one page and adjust based on vacation. Staff able to request time off or set availability. Staff able to see everyones schedule. Able to print/post as needed or just view via app.

Please add the ability for center staff to update guardian profile photos to assist in parent recognition and in pickup recognization.

I'm currently having to email families a separate acceptance letter with the child's name, DOB, class, schedule, billing contract, etc. when they are offered a spot. We are required to have this on file for state licensing and apart of our state subsidy contract requirements for families. I'd love to be able to edit a document and add to the new paperwork section when a family is offered the spot so they can complete it digitally rather than via email and clunky scan features for some families.

It is currently not possible to add families (including families that were previously enrolled) to the enrollment portal. It would be great to be able to add them directly into the portal ourselves.
