What's New in Classroom 9.6 - July 2024

Archive Classes

Classes can now be hidden from the Classes menu by archiving them. This provides teachers a way to clean up their class lists by removing old, unused classes. Users with permission to edit a class will have permission to archive  The process can be easily reversed by unarchiving. Archive and Unarchive are available from the list view for classes. Archiving a class will also disable any applicable class schedules.

Securly Pass Integration

Securly Classroom integrates deeply with Securly Pass, our industry-leading digital hall pass solution.  Teachers can perform all of the most common daily functions related to digital hall passes directly from Securly Classroom, with no need to switch to the Securly Pass interface.

The integration offers the following features:

  • See which students are already out on an active pass when starting a class.


  • See a badge on a student’s thumbnail to indicate if the student is out on an active pass, and click to view pass details.


  • Get a notification when a student is on the way to class from another location.
  • Approve or cancel hall pass requests.


  • Get a notification when a student on a pass arrives at their destination.


  • Get notifications for auto-passes.

Fixes
