In Education Edge, each student had either a Homeroom Teacher (Pre-Primary and Primary School) or an Advisor (Middle and Upper School) on his/her Bio 1 page.  This handy piece of information was available for queries to extract and group data by the teacher or advisor. It appears that the only way to replicate that type of functionality is to use two of the precious custom fields that can never be reused or deleted.  In a school environment, this is a key piece of data that changes year to year and is referenced heavily.

I believe that this information should be made available with the basic student information, updateable each year as needed.
