FOCUS-43613- Course Catalog: Correct Display of Credits for Course from Florida CCD

Previously, when a course in the Course Catalog used an 8th digit, the credits per course computed value would not be pulled from the Florida Course Code Directory. With this update, the column is populated as expected. The credits per course value only appears in the Course Catalog for Florida schools.

FOCUS-43569- Rollover: Include Attendance Scanner in Rollover of Course Sections

Currently, the section setting "Attendance Scanner" is not included in the columns that get rolled over during the Rollover process.

This update resolves an error encountered when attempting to print a letter in Communication or Print Letters and Send Email.

FOCUS-43537- Communication Platform: Resolve Error on Long Announcements

Previously, if an announcement had a large number of schools or profiles selected such that their concatenated titles exceeded 8000 characters, an error would occur when opening the announcement page. This update resolves the issue, allowing announcements with extensive lists of schools or profiles to be opened without error.

FOCUS-43528- Grades: Improve Logic of Completion Reports for Inclusion Teachers

Currently, the query for the Grades Completion Report ensures there is no completion record in the 'grades_completed' table that matches the section and marking period for the course being checked. However, it does not check the Staff ID of the person who completed the grades. This causes non-inclusion teachers to not appear on the report if an inclusion teacher marked their students' grades. This update modifies the query to include a check for matching Staff IDs, ensuring that only the relevant teacher's completion records are considered, and non-inclusion teachers are accurately shown on the report.

FOCUS-43515- Delete a Student: Improve Merging Students Profile Values

This update implements the merging of the student field profile. If the profile of the deleted student is set but the kept student's profile is not set, the profile from the deleted student will be assigned to the kept student.

FOCUS-43461- Communication Settings: Display Correct 12-Hour Period for Time Fields

Previously, entering a start or end time between 1:00am and 6:59am on the settings page in the Communication Platform (attendance or integrations) would convert the time to PM after refreshing the page. This update ensures that the time remains as set. Additionally, times entered with a leading zero (e.g., 01:00 to 07:00) are now correctly recognized as AM instead of converting to PM upon tabbing out. These changes apply to all time entry fields within the platform.

FOCUS-43454- Discipline: Increase Scrollable Area in Referrals

This update improves the layout of the Total Days of Discipline value when reviewing a Discipline Referral by clearing out unnecessary whitespace. This enhancement ensures a cleaner and more organized display.

The Local ID now correctly appears in the reports as intended.

FOCUS-43321- Pull Grades for Report Cards: New "Override Report Card Codes" Feature

This enhancement introduces a new setting to the Pull Grades for Report Cards feature, allowing an override of the Report Card Codes System Preference. The Report Card Codes Override is a dropdown with options for 'Default' and 'Letter Grade', and this override applies to the current pull only.

FOCUS-42992- Assessments: New FAST Assessment Report (Florida)

The FAST Report is designed to provide detailed insights into student progress in either ELA or Math. It lists active schools and shows the average Overall Scale Score and growth amounts for each Performance Measure (PM). Positive growth is highlighted in green, while negative growth is shown in red. Users can click on a specific school to view detailed student-level data, including individual Overall Scale Scores and growth. By incorporating the FAST Report, educators and administrators can access data-driven insights on student progress, identify growth trends, and make informed decisions.

It will not appear on templates or attendance messages in the settings tab. Additionally, a migration will update drafts and scheduled messages. Any draft or scheduled message with a letterhead template or marked as "send as district" will have the "Include Signature" option unchecked. All other messages will have this new option checked by default.

See Communication > Compose tab and Settings tab for details.

FOCUS-42739- School Choice: Improve Auditing via Refresh School Choice Data Scheduled Job

This update resolves an issue with the 'Refresh Choice Data' process, which was running unnecessary updates to 'school_choice_application_status' records and logging those changes into 'audit.school_choice_application_status.' The root cause was that the Priority Calculator updated all records by setting new values to the 'priority', 'chart_id', and 'sibling_guarantees' columns without checking if the updated values differed from the existing ones. While these updates did not affect the table data, they triggered changes to the 'updated_at' column, which appeared in the audit trail. With this update, the Priority Calculator will execute update queries only if the values in 'priority', 'chart_id', or 'sibling_guarantees' have actually changed.

FOCUS-42718- Assessments: Ensure All Courses Display in Assign Standards to Courses

This update corrects an issue in the Assign Standards to Courses feature, where courses with additional characters added to the source Course Catalog course would not appear as selectable options. Now, all relevant courses will be displayed and selectable in the Assign Standards to Courses process.

FOCUS-41485- New Search: Improve Searching on Multiple Logging Fields

FOCUS-42889- Communication Platform: New Attendance Thresholds for Streamlined Automated Attendance Messaging

This feature enhancement introduces a new automation option to the Communication Platform and Attendance Setup by expanding Tardy Thresholds into the new Attendance Thresholds feature. Now, an automated email can be sent to all the Primary/ Custodial Contacts of the Student who meets the newly established attendance thresholds. This addition complements the existing automated referral process for students meeting the criteria in the previous Tardy Thresholds. Existing Tardy Thresholds created by the organization remain unchanged.

Introduced changes:

- Attendance Setup > Attendance Thresholds: Replaces Tardy Thresholds.

- Number of Instances: Replaces the number of Tardies.

- Placeholder Row: Now set to "None" rather than "All Unexcused."

- Available Attendance Codes: Pulled from the top-right school selection.

- Communication Template: Now available in Attendance Settings/Thresholds.

- Discipline Code and Action: No longer required to lock in the setting.

- Scheduled Job Renaming: The scheduled job has been renamed to Attendance Thresholds, previously known as Create Detentions from Tardies.

See Attendance Setup > Adding an Attendance Threshold Rule and Scheduled Jobs > Built-In Scheduled Jobs Explained for more information.

FOCUS-43553- SSS: Improve Printing Progress Monitoring

Previously, if the table containing progress and objective data was too large to fit on a single page, it would cause an issue where new pages were continuously created. With this update, printing the Progress Monitoring Event no longer causes this problem, even if the table data is too large to fit on a single page.

FOCUS-43505- SSS: Improve Event Triggers Setting Student Field with Multi-Select Dropdowns

Before the update, the Event Trigger with the Run Form Trigger Action and setStudentField parameter did not work for multi-select options, and values were not pushed from SSS to SIS. With this update, the Event Trigger with the Run Form Trigger Action and setStudentField parameter now works as expected for multi-select options, and values are correctly pushed to SIS.

FOCUS-43283- SSS: Resolve Pre-lock Preventing Publish to Parent Prompt

Previously, a pre-lock event trigger prevented users from receiving a prompt to publish to the parent portal. With this update, users will now receive the publish to parent portal prompt as expected, even if there is a pre-lock event trigger.

FOCUS-43281- SSS: Adjustments to Goals Provide & Service Type Option (Ohio)

This update includes two changes to the goals and objectives step of the IEP meeting event, specifically for Ohio. The Responsible Implementers dropdown now has no options and defaults to N/A. Additionally, the Service Type now defaults to Instructional.

FOCUS-42916- SSS: Resolve Deleted District Logos Impacting SSS Forms

Previously, after SSS was locked and the district changed their logo and deleted the previous file, the links to the old logo would break, causing the logo to not display on all form instances prior to the change. This issue also occurred in Form Builder. With this update, Form Builder and SSS locked events now load the district's current logo, and existing header instances are updated as expected.

FOCUS-42614- SSS: Improve Display of Caseload & Services Service Dates

Previously, if a user saved a caseload service record without the required service date field, the Last Serviced column in SSS > Caseload & Services > 'Caseload' tab would display today's date as the service date. With this update, the Last Serviced column will display no date when there is no service date. If a service is submitted with a blank date, it will default to today's date.
