[Enhancement] Custom Forms: New Expired Forms Filter

[Enhancement] Health: Mass Screening Column Order now is Right/Left, Right/Left versus Right/Right, Left/Left, etc.

[Enhancement] Search 2.0: New State Reported Race Filter under Advanced Demographics

Report Cards: Enhancements and Fixes:

[Enhancement] Admins can now input empty lower bound for percentage-type value scales. Previously, an error message is displayed when Admins saved an empty Lower Bound in Value Scale. Now, empty Lower Bound can be saved and can be inputted as a student score using its Display Value.

[Enhancement] Added check and validation on Value Scale creation and edit screens to prevent same Display Value from getting saved. Display Value must be unique. When duplicate values are detected, the screen displays an alert message and the Value Scale cannot be saved until duplicates are removed or corrected. This prevents potential data issues that may arise from duplicate values.

[Fix] Report Cards printing stalled sporadically. Such issues were observed to specifically occur when printing from the Report Cards widget on the Student Profile page. It also caused problems to teachers and other users who were assigned with permission to print historical Report Cards. We resolved this issue and made some updates to make sure printing continues to work seamlessly as expected.

[Enhancement] Assessment List- Widened search ability- The search will now find partial words, for example, type in 'Eng' and it will find all assessments with 'Eng', like 'English 10 Quiz', in the title.

[Fix] Fixed an issue that caused the cross-gradebook weight report to display the teacher-created Grading Scale even if the school had set up a school-wide grade scale. The cross-gradebook weight report should respect the school-wide grade scale and should use a teacher-created grading scale only when no site-wide scale is set up.

[Fix] Fixed an issue that caused an inaccurate median standards score calculation in the Standards-Based GradeBook. It affected standards with fewer than three assignments.

[Fix] Some teachers noticed that specific assignments linked from assessments were displaying incorrect values. It was specifically observed on linked question groups and standards. We’ve traced and corrected the root cause of the issue.

[Fix] We’ve worked on a fix to a problem that caused the GradeBook Widget in the Student Portal to display a score that did not match overall scores in GradeBook scoresheets. The display issue has been fixed. A scoresheet score in a given grading period should be the same as the score displayed in the Student Portal during the same grading period.

[Fix] Some teachers noticed that assignment notes could not be saved. We’ve checked and confirmed that this issue specifically occured only with students who had a blank score on assignments linked to assessments. Generally, linked assignments were not affected. We’ve rolled out the fix to ensure that notes will always be saved.

[Enhancement] Updated CA Immunization Health Card- This report now defaults to display the students’ reported name and reported gender. If this information is not available, it will then display their in-system preferred name and gender. This is in compliance with CALPADS that requires legal name and gender to populate on legal documents but allows preferred name and gender to be displayed in system rosters.
