alphabitize!!!
Schoology and misis do not have the same alphbetizing, especially when students last names are the same.
Have respect for kids names. We ask for their last name but misis uses the students other last names which they don't go by.
Print the report card on both sides in English and spanish. Many students can't read a spanish report card. Just because a parent is bilingual doesn't mean the student has a grasp of the 2nd language of their parent

Opened enhancement 7334 Modify Teacher Class Attendance 2.0 to alphabetize student names to match Schoology alpha rules.

It is not Schoology and MiSiS that differ. It is MiSiS attendance module and the grading module. One alphabetizes unicode commas before spaces and the other does the opposite. Schoology gets the information from the grades module and PRESTO:
Attendance: "Lopez Gonzalez, Earl" comes before "Lopez, Jane"
Grades/Schoology: "Lopez, Jane" comes before "Lopez Gonzalez, Earl"
I filed this bug long ago but it still persists. It makes it very easy to put in the wrong grade for a student, if you are working from a 5-column roster.
