[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can't they just have ONE platform????[/quote]

This.  Canvas, Synergy, ParentVue, Connect Eds, Emails, Texts.  It's all too much and now there's a new one?  Which I had never heard of before today yet two other parents, who wanted to know my kid's teacher, already seemed to know about it.  I'm info-ed out and just don't care anymore.[/quote]

ParentSquare bought Remind. MCPS ant control that.

Canvas is a coursework management system, not a school management system.

Synergy is the system that contains ParentVue. You don't use both.

Connect Ed is a content/curriculum system, not a parent communication system.

Emails and Texts (and Phone Calls) aren't school apps. They are delivery methods apps use.

I was super irritated when they got remind and I will remain irritated by parentsquare.  Why can’t they just use emails like normal people?  Texts only for emergencies not for all the stupid spam they send.

I would love it if synergy and canvas were integrated.  My oldest is now in college and they use canvas there — she frequently remarks that her college’s design for canvas is waaaaay better than the McPS design.  (She has done a lot of computer science stuff so is pretty savvy with the McPS tech capabilities.).  So I think it’s a comb of the limitations on the software that is available to school and McPS not being a sophisticated consumer in setting up the software modifications in the best way possible.
