Keep Mastered Marked
When something is marked “mastered” it should stay that way, even if the child continues to do that work. If 1 teacher marks it as mastered and the next day the child does it again and that teacher just marks practiced, it changes back. With multiple kids and teachers it is frustrating things don't stay marked mastered.

Lesson Plans not Lesson Lists
Hello Transparent Classroom Team, Anthony from Forestville Montessori School, Sydney Australia.
Once again, loving your product. I'd like to make a feature request which I believe could enhance your product and help teachers stop duplicating lessons and plans across multi-documents and apps.
Currently Transparent Classroom makes the task of generating lessons and organising them into lists such as weekly, by lesson, or by student very easy. The piece that we have identified that is missing is the actual individual lesson. Most schools have a requirement that teachers, especially in elementary plan lessons from their albums. The album provides the basis for the lessons, it is the user manual on how to present lessons but is not the lesson plan. The lesson plan feature in Transparent Classroom builds a lesson list, it is not a lesson plan from a curriculum point of view.
The lesson plan has very specific features:
- Subject Area
- Term or Semester
- Week or Date
- Lesson Title
- Album Reference
- Direct Aim
- Lesson Summary
- Designated Follow-up
- Children
- Additional Notes
- There could be the ability to add or modify these headers as required by schoolWould it be possible to build this feature into Transparent Classroom?
I would see the following scenario happen when a teacher starts the planning process:
- Select the lesson title
- Select the children
- Select the date
- It would also flag the lesson for presentation as it currently does
- It would also build the current Weekly Lesson Plan list
This would then auto populate a page that is the beginning of the detailed lesson plan.
- Teacher then fills out the rest of the document
- Album Reference
- Direct Aim
- Lesson Summary
- Designated Follow-up
Additional Notes
These documents are then saved securely in Transparent Classroom as a ‘one-shop-repository’. There would need to be some sort of nomenclature or file structure so that the plans are easily accessible e.g. Top Level: Anthony’s 9-12 Class 2020 / Next Level: folders for subject areas / The plan is then stored in the appropriate folder with a date stamp eg. 2020-Wk6-28Aug.
The reason I’m proposing this is that we are moving away from paper documentation and storage. Also, we are trying to streamline the process and make it consistent across the school. Some teachers use Word docs, other use spreadsheets, some use OneNote etc. We are looking for ease of use, collaborative documents, easy access and storage.
What do you think? Would love to discuss further as it is getting very frustrating have documents all over the place. Could be a ‘WIN-WIN’ for Transparent Classroom and Schools. The lesson plans would not be available to parents.

Notify Staff of Announcements
When I post an announcement for families I would like to have the teachers for those classrooms also notified to look at the announcement on the Home Page - or else have their email show up with the class.

Maintain visual of lessons completed
What a lesson has been checked off in child boxes leave the line item visible and checked off (maybe in a lighter colour font) to see what has been done that day. This will make seeing quickly which children have had a lesson in a day much easier.

Update "do not share" language to be more clear.
Better language for "do not share" option.
When parents are uploading their information, please have more detail around "do not share". Several parents misinterpreted that this year. Could it say something like "do not share my email in the class directory"?

health check
I request that you add the "health check" box to the regular sign-in that parents do. Some of my parents are not using the phone app. Is there a reason why it's on one and not on the other? This is greatly needed right now.

We would like to be able to download into a spreadsheet more reports such as equity, child lessons by area, etc in order to pull and display more school wide data.
We would also like to be able to download student progress into a spreadsheet.

Exporting different columns of data
Would it be possible to export specific data from classrooms to a CSV? I know at the moment we can just push a download button and that downloads all of the information for the classroom. I would like to export just certain columns like "Child Name", "Age", and "Approved Adults" for example :)

Inquiry to Enrollment Management System
It would be great if your system had a way of tracking inquiries. We are taking advantage of most of your features (application, enrollment forms, attendance, etc.) so it doesn't make sense for us to invest in a separate system just for tracking inquiries, but the Excel spreadsheet method of tracking inquiries is tedious and difficult to manage. It seems you could easily add an Inquiry tab in the Admin section and include features such as automatic responses, tracking of progress through the process, follow-up reminders, etc. Thanks for considering!

Monthly "Circle Time" Curriculum Planning
I would love to be able to plan out my daily whole group lesson, or "circle time" on a month long calendar. I would be ideal to print out the month long scope and sequence for long term planning year to year. I would also like to be able to print it in a weekly view. I would use this view so myself and my assistants can prep materials and content in the couple day before the lesson. Right now, I am using other format to do essential this. However, it would be nice to do this in unison with my lesson planning per child, and to have the option to share this with my children's families.

misc. form upload
A miscellaneous tab in child's file that can be private (hidden from parents unless allowed) to upload any document needed in file - state forms for childcare, vision screening request, medication notification, physical reports that would not require a form to be assigned to parent for completion.
