  Case: Bathroom passes?
How do high school teachers handle bathroom issues? When I issue my students passes, they lose them or use them all and still ask to go to the bathroom. I can't tell them they can't go to the bathroom when they are sitting there telling me they really have to go, but I know some of them aren't really going to the bathroom or just want to leave for a minute. I've tried every system and can't find one that works. Any ideas?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I know teachers who have specific times when a student can use the bathroom in their classroom. I also know of teachers who use specific systems for using the bathroom like, if you would like to use the bathroom in this class again you have to bring the pass back. If you lose the pass you can't use the bathroom again (which is a good incentive for students who simply want to leave the classroom for a few and get away to want to not lose the pass.)
