How Minga Hall Passes Work in the Classroom

Here is a simple overview of the different classroom workflows:

1. Students Ask Permission
   1. The student asks the teacher's permission to go to the bathroom or for a drink of water. (This represents 90-95% of typical hall pass usage)
2. Approval
   1. Teacher responds with "Yes, go ahead and create your Hall Pass" or "No" and the process is over.
3. Student Creates a Pass
   1. Students create their hall pass on their mobile device or school-approved device (Chromebook, Kiosk, etc...)
4. Student Uses the Pass
   1. Student can leave the class with or without their device. Staff who request to see the pass may view it on the student's or their device.
