add Student-created Webpages started
Each student in a class gets a section of webpages to manage in the same manner that teachers manage their sites. These sections are linked to from the classroom website. Teachers will have the option to approve these pages before they are published or let the students publish their own pages.

add the ability to print grade summaries for each student planned
It's nice the teacher can print the class grades for each test or term, but wouldn't it be nice to have a print out for each student? It's like an automatic progress report for each kid! There should be room for teacher's to write a comment into each student report.

add a classroom wiki
Allow classes to create their own wiki for students to contribute information. This could also take the form of a content block link to wikispaces or a similar service.

add an All-School Calendar that feeds class calendars
For users inside a school domain, it would be helpful to have a centralized 'all-school' calendar which could provide events to all teachers inside a particular school/organization.

add the ability to the video block to encode video as flash
modify the video block to work as a flash player instead of requiring the client to use a video on their local system. This would create additional ways to protect copyrighted video and remove some potential for video being incompatible with local players.

They can flag some files to be part of their show and share, one or more resources that are featured with their identity on the website. Possible additional features would allow for the inclusion ... more

Post to multiple classes at once planned
When adding an assignment, announcement, calendar entry, etc., it would be nice to be able to add the same item to multiple classes.
Thank you for the additional suggestions. We are planning on solving this important need in two steps. The first will be to add the ability to post blocks and pages to several classes at once. This will be coming in the next few weeks. We will be then adding the ability to maintain several rosters in one class, which will allow for sharing of assignments, announcements, etc.

add pictures to On Page Text
It would be great to have the ability to Insert/Picture/From File or clipart while in On Page text. Make the toolbars a little more Word like.

Make a seperate section where we to connect with everyone. planned
A section where we connect with anyone on haiku. This section could have chatrooms about different subjects, educational games, open forums/discussions, student profiles(that could be added by other students and could be customized but only to level that wont change the educational environment), ... more
We are planning to implement features that will work much like the student profiles you mention as a part of student and group webpages. I'll keep this idea open, too even after we complete the first section, as you mention open forums/discussions and other great ideas.

add a way to accept payment for classes
I would like to be able to offer courses that require payment up front via credit card. Upon payment, I would like the user to be automatically added to my class roster.

add ability to post same announcement on different classes
Sometimes we have the same message for all our classes, but don't want to write it three, four, or so many different times. Wouldn't it be great to have the option that says, "Post on all your classes?" for each announcement?

Add ability to see all work in the class for a student
When clicking on a student in the roster, it would be nice to see a summary of all work they have completed for that particular class and be able to access that work for viewing or download.
This is an exciting idea. More specifically...would you see this only as a listing of all homework turned in to the dropbox, or should it include discussions and assessments as well?

add the ability to post header and footer images.
I would like the ability to upload my own images to the header and footer of the class. This would be an easy way for me to customize the look of my webclass.

add a Student Locker
This would be a place that while the students are doing work on a project they would be able to store files and links and such for future use. I know they have the save as draft, but you can't use it as nice as a virtual "locker" would be. Maybe build this into the student web page yo... more
It will be possible for students to upload files using the portfolio (school and district version only) once our next major release comes out in just few weeks. We do plan on adding a student locker in the future.
