I teach art to 400 elementary students and your app has simplified my life and improved my teaching and documentation in ways I never dreamed possible! Thank you!

I have two suggestions.
1. Being that I have 20 classes on a four day rotation, I would love the ability to keep notes. I know most teachers use the calendar for this, but I don't see the kids daily and some of my rotation days are mixed up. It would be nice to have an optional note tab where I could jot down important reminders about the class...(i.e. new seating chart, or keep so and so away from a different student...or how they did last time I saw them)

2. It would also be awesome to be able to either select one student and see all of their info, without exporting it, on a single screen so that the icons show (I used them to document behavior reminders) so that I can have a private conference with a student and show them their info without them seeing their classmates info. Or some type of screen shade or selector would be great too.

Thanks again for this amazing app!!!

Hi jlux,
About 1. Yes, we had in mind some sort of tab-templates (in the form of to-dos, notes, calendar) where you could write down your info in different forms, not only 'date' based as in the current diary.
A new update is in the works with a huge list of new features and improvements, this was actually in the list, but I'm not sure if it will make it in this or in the next one because of our tight deadline... fingers crossed.

About 2. I think you may find the 'Students filter' almost as useful as the screen shade you suggested! When in the gradebook screen, in the top bar's filter you can type a name, lastname or group and only students that match that criteria will be on screen. If you type a complete name only one will be shown.

This filter is kept along all tabs (even the seating plan) so you can navigate across the gradebook focused only in that info .

Thank You
