Hi @mjones14 - What are the benefit(s) you would have if these fields to the secondary information options were added?

Hi @KristinL ,

The benefit would be that the teacher can choose to display this secondary information when viewing student information in the Gradebook. Currently, the pronouns and display name do not appear in all areas that a teacher would typically visit. Thank you!
