      No Party Groups

      Minga No Party Groups are designed to stop specific groups of students being out of class and meeting in the hallways at the same time. When one member of a No Party Group has an active Hall Pass, no other members of that group are able to activate their own Hall Passes.

      Pass List

      One Pass, Two Pass, No Pass & No Grant Lists

      Limit the number of Hall Passes that can be created for specific students by adding them to the One Pass or Two Pass Lists.

      Students can also be added to the No Pass list when they are not approved for any Hall Passes. This can be a permanent or temporary measure depending on the student. When a student is on either a No Party list or a No Pass list they will not be able to create their own hall pass. Staff will receive a warning when assigning a Hall Pass to a student who is not allowed to be in the halls. Staff are able to override the warning and issue the pass if they choose.

      The No Grant list will restrict any added teachers or staff from being able to create Hall Passes.
