They should attach the email addresses of your child's teacher beside the courses so it's easy to contact the teacher with any concerns
The areas where your child's course codes/ course names are there should also be the teachers email address so that you can contact the teacher easily if you have any concerns or just need to talk with them. It wouldn't take much on your part and would make it so much easier for busy working concerned parents that want to be apart of their child's education

In the attendance summary I think they should be in order of dates absent or late as it makes it harder to find out if your child was absent
Please put attendance/late in order from when they happen.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion.
Yes, we agree it would be best if the absences were sorted by DATE rather than DAY.
We will investigate to resolve this issue.

Move the Attendance button
On my mobile device the Attendance button is in a grey box on the far bottom left of the screen. It's likely a high traffic button - move it to a more easily visible location at the top of the screen.

It would be helpful to have a box where I can type text for when none of the reasons offered cover an absence.

The absence reasons available for selection are the reasons used for internal tracking of student absences. We can consider an option for an ‘Other’ reason and provide an opportunity to enter more details regarding the absence.

Alternative payment methods. Please allow debit or credit instead of PayPal
Love the online payment. But PayPal is not convenient. UCDSB already stores all kinds of confidential information, any information about our children should be just as protected and any potential financial information this might require UCDSB to store.

It would be great if parents had the option to put more than 1 mobile phone number - or a joint account for both mom/dad.
My husband isn't going to create an account for 1 missing phone number... It would be best for us to have one account we can both access and have both our information in the same place. The current set up only allows for one mobile phone number.

The addresses tab is not editable.
The address tab has the information that the school uses as contact information. They have refused to update the information manually for 3 years now.
