SmartPass Roll Out

Dear Intermediate High School Families


Beginning on January 1th we will begin using the digital hall pass system SmartPass. Teachers will show the students how to log into the system to create passes that week and we will begin to implement the new system that week. SmartPass is a digital hall pass system that replaces traditional hall passes such as sign-out sheets, wooden blocks, passbooks, and lanyards.


It provides administrators an accounting of which students are outside of the classroom during the school day. In case of emergencies such as fires, severe weather, or building intruders, administrators have real-time access to this critical information. Overall, the pass history of a student will lead to more effective and informative parent-teacher conferences, as well as ensuring students are where they should be - in the classroom learning.


During COVID-19, it helps our school go contact-free by eliminating common touch surfaces such as wooden blocks, shared paper sign out sheets, pencils, etc. It also can automatically limit the number of students in the bathroom with minimal intrusion to class instruction. Plus, it can perform contact tracing to get a list of students that were in the room at the same time as another student.


Students and staff can access SmartPass from their school-provided device at www.smartpass.app/login.


For more information, please visit the vendor’s website at www.smartpass.app.


Sincerely,


Mr. Maloney

Shout Out Opportunity

To foster and help with creating a positive school climate and culture, we have created the “Intermediate Shout Out.” This initiative is based on students, faculty, parents/guardians to publicly acknowledge over the Pa system for good works done here at the school, which relate to PBIS. All one has to do is fill out the google form website, provide your name, the person who you are shouting, and the reason for the shout out.
