Hide modules that don't apply to the district / schools
There are certain sections/modules within Aeries that we just don't use - it would be really nice to be able to have a page that lets us indicate which modules we'd like to hide from view - either by district or school or both.
For example:
In the Analytics section - we are a K-8 district, so nothing having to do with AP tests or SAT scores needs to be displayed.
One of our schools uses Grades / one uses SBG. Why do both sections display for both schools?
We don't use Supplemental Attendance, Financials, Service Learning, or District Assets…

Aeries times out too quickly and then takes forever to reload. It seems the timeout is set 1 min. Can the timeout be more like 30 minutes?
