Hall Pass- Teacher Training

Complete video training walkthrough for teachers and classroom staff on issuing passes, approving student requests, managing PINs, and processing student check-ins.

💡 Adoption Tip — Device-Free Classrooms: Teachers can run Hall Pass with zero student devices. You can issue passes directly from your classroom computer or mobile app, and check students back in upon their return without requiring students to carry a phone or open a laptop.

Key takeaways for teachers

  • Flexible device access: Teachers can issue and monitor passes directly from their smartphones or from any web browser on classroom computers.

  • Multi-student efficiency: Issue passes to multiple students simultaneously for group library research or team errands.

  • No automatic check-in: Expired passes stay flagged as Expired until a staff member physically checks the student back in (note: exact check-in rules and whether students or staff must enter a PIN depend on settings configured by your school or district administrator in Settings > Need PIN for check in).

  • Conflict protection: If a student belongs to an Exclusion Group, the system immediately warns you if a restricted peer is already in the hallway.
