Thry dont need to create anything, and thats the point.
They have what they needs but when they dant understand the a functionality that they want they just abandon one system and implement another. But not really. They dont truly abandon the first before starting to use the second

A true it professional would understand the new need and leverage co.aony A to not only implement it but train stuff on it.

They also need an it professional to not do stupid things like push personal student information through a message board app. And they absolutely need to train teachers on hos to use canvas, StudentVue and the Google. And then they need someone who understands how to Monitor and give feedback to people misusing them.
Its a disaster.

Instead parent volunteers have been training admins in how to use various features of ParentSquare. It's ridiculous.

And a teacher asked for parent volunteers via parent square this week but you have to create a parent account to read the request. So they barely got any volunteers because most parents haven’t set up accounts yet
