Digital Hall Passes

The Hall Pass module in Student Support Time is a digital solution for managing student movement throughout the school day. It enables teachers, administrators, and even students (with permission) to issue, track, and review hall passes in real time. Key features include customizable pass types, real-time status tracking (issued, arrived, returned), email/SMS notifications to staff and parents, usage limits, scheduling options, and robust reporting tools. It also supports kiosks for quick access and self-service.


The Problem: Hall Passes Are Still a Mess

Most schools are juggling a mix of outdated and disconnected systems:

  • Paper passes, lanyards, and handwritten notes
  • Different processes for bathroom, office, and early dismissal
  • No clear visibility into where students are
  • Constant interruptions: “Is this student out or absent?”
  • Little to no accountability or reporting

It creates confusion for staff—and too much freedom for students to slip through the cracks.

The Solution: One System for All Student Movement

Student Support Time brings everything together into a single, easy-to-use system:

  • Issue and track passes digitally in seconds
  • See who’s out, where they are, and when they return
  • Automatically enforce school rules and limits
  • Integrate seamlessly with the platform your staff already uses

No extra systems. No extra logins. No learning curve.

Start Simple. Scale Up.

Roll out hall passes at your own pace:

  • Start small: Late arrivals, early dismissals, front office passes
  • Expand: Teacher-issued passes and office destinations
  • Go all-in: Student self-service with full automation

Adopt what you need today—and grow when you're ready.

Built-In Intelligence (Not Just Digital Paper)

Automatically enforce your school’s policies:

  • Limit passes per day or per term
  • Block passes during specific times (ex: first/last 10 minutes)
  • Allow only one student out at a time per class
  • Restrict specific students or pass types
  • Instantly check eligibility before issuing

Reduce decision-making for teachers and ensure consistency across the building.

Real-Time Visibility for Staff and Admins

Always know what’s happening in your building:

  • Live dashboards showing active passes
  • Filter by student, class, or location
  • Quick views for teachers and administrators
  • Optional hallway or front office display screens

No more guessing. No more chasing students down.

Flexible Ways to Issue Passes

Meet your school where it is:

  • Teacher-issued passes from the classroom dashboard
  • Student self-service (with safeguards)
  • Admin and front office tools
  • Shared device and kiosk-based issuing
Secure and Flexible Kiosk Mode

Perfect for high-traffic areas:

  • Front entrance check-in and check-out
  • Media center, nurse’s office, or tech support
  • Classroom Chromebooks or shared devices
  • Optional badge scan or student ID entry

Fast, secure, and easy to manage—without exposing your system.

Automatic Notifications & Communication

Keep everyone informed without extra work:

  • Notify teachers instantly when passes are issued
  • Alert staff when students arrive or return
  • Optional parent notifications for out-of-building passes
  • Email, in-app alerts, and optional text messaging
Built for Real School Scenarios

More than just bathroom passes:

  • Health office and counseling visits
  • Media center and Chromebook support
  • College visits and special events

Data & Reporting That Drives Decisions

Turn hall pass usage into meaningful insights:

  • Track usage by student, type, or time of day
  • Identify patterns and frequent pass users
  • Monitor policy effectiveness
  • Generate reports for administrators
Fully Configurable to Your School

Every school is different—your system should be too:

  • Customize pass types, rules, and limits
  • Control who can issue passes
  • Align with your bell schedule
  • Set visibility by role (teacher, admin, staff)

You define the rules. The system enforces them.
