Teachers have different processes of implementing pass system

Mabie believes that the system is convenient.

“I think more teachers are using it because it’s easier than having to write out a pass every time a kid wants to go to the bathroom.”

However, she also recognizes that teachers have different ways they go about implementing the system.

“I think each teacher has to have a system on how to make it work within their classroom,” Mabie said

Like Mabie, Pautz also recognizes that teachers have different ways they implement the system within their classrooms, however, Pautz wishes for more consistency.

“The hall pass system generally works and does not cause any disturbances to the class. Most of my students know the procedure by now,” Pautz said. “It may be helpful to have the same procedure for all classes so students remember like: are they supposed to sign out, ask for the pass or just go?”

Just like how each teacher has their own process of implementing the system, different teachers, like Fish, Masterson and Pautz have had different systems in responding to their passes going missing.
