Allow Multiple Account Types
Allow Aeries users to have a single login, but be able to switch between various roles such as teacher, user, or admin.

Yes, We would like a staff member with multiple "roles" (administrative, teacher), to only need single user account which allows them to function in the multiple roles.
For those staff with multiple roles, requiring multiple accounts conflicts with our goal of providing a single login, complicates user support & account maintenance, and adds additional complexity
downstream to the multitude of educational support software from which Aeries serves as the source.We previously submitted this under PR: 20637

The only problem I see as someone who manages many districts we host is that the web addresses are different for users compared to teachers so there really is no way to switch between accounts.

We would like a new security option for Teachers on Special Assignment. This would grant them "User" access to Aeries, in addition to the "Teacher" access.
Background
We have teachers on special assignment. Sometimes they fulfill two roles at the school ( Teacher and User Security Groups ).Instead of creating two accounts, we would like them to just sign-in with their 1x account to minimize support and also reduce confusion. This helps us keep in-sync with external authentication options.
