FAQs

Unable to approve a pass?

If you're struggling to approve a pass because the button is greyed out, we recommend checking the history and notes section. If you see that a staff member at the school has approved this pass it means that the final approval has been given to this student on this selected pass.

If you are wondering why your endorsement has been bypassed, we suggest contacting the school.


​Why can't I see another parent/ guardian request?

For potential custodial reasons, we restrict parents and guardians from reviewing another parent/ guardian's request. This is to overall protect your student's information. If you have any questions about this, please let our team know.
