That’s what I’m talking about! This could be great.

Sorry, but I appreciate this effort on the part of APS. It may eliminate kids meeting up in the bathroom, or abusing bathroom privileges. That, I assure you, is rampant. Of course, there are many kids that don’t abuse the privilege, occasionally may need to take longer, or what have you. I doubt any of this will be a problem for them.
It is an extra measure of school safety and security. I’m down.
Also… think about how dirty those bathroom hall passes probably are! So gross. Welcome, Manga.

This is the problem with incomplete information going out. An FAQ should be part of this announcement.

So now APS is going to require kids to bring a recording device to the bathroom? What could go wrong?!

They say it’s for security, but that could be accomplished by static student is cards that can be scanned for validity. No need for paying for some app.
Same with hall pass, teacher enters into central server, scan student ID, it shows they have a virtual hall pass, no student device required.

Can someone explain how this works? Kids at my MS — which is at one of the schools listed in the article where this is happening next moth — are supposed to have phones out away in their lockers.
Maybe it's installed on their school iPad?
Yes, students can download it onto their phone (a hard "no" from me, the parent) or onto their school issued device. That means they get to take their iPad or laptop into the bathroom stall with them. Can't let it out of your control or sight for an instance in case someone else picks it up or walks away with it - even by accident - or you'll be caught without a pass!
Wait is this real? How are you supposed to go to the bathroom?

They should make Syphax employees use this app and track them. Make sure they're where they're supposed to be and know where to find them when they aren't responding to emails or phone calls.

That's how parents get the APS news these days. If pattern follows, APS will send something out to parents in the next few weeks.
