Monthly Calendar Flexibility

What specific challenge or problem does this idea solve?

This idea solves the challenge of having to commit to a static, season-long class schedule, which doesn't reflect the flexible nature of practice for teams like ours. Currently, we have to manually change the calendar each week to reflect actual practice times, especially when practices become more frequent before competitions. This process is time-consuming and leaves room for confusion.

How should this work?

The calendar feature should allow administrators to set and adjust class schedules monthly, instead of being locked into a fixed weekly schedule for the entire season. Ideally, the system would include an option to manage the calendar in monthly or yearly views, so changes can be made in advance and reflect real-time updates.

Who will benefit (Admins, Staff, Students)?

Everyone involved—Admins, parents, and dancers—would benefit. Admins wouldn’t need to constantly upload updated calendars to shared files, and parents would have access to an accurate calendar in one place. This ensures that everyone is on the same page without the need for additional communication.

How will this change impact your daily tasks or overall experience?

This change would drastically reduce the number of texts, emails, and phone calls we receive asking whether dancers have practice on a particular day. Having an accurate and updated calendar would streamline communication, improve organization, and enhance the overall user experience for both staff and families.
