ClassCheckpoint is a simple digital tool that helps teachers manage student bathroom breaks without interrupting class.
Instead of students raising their hands to ask permission, they:
- Enter their unique 4-digit code on a classroom device
- Get automatically tracked when they leave and return
- Can see if they need to wait in a queue if too many students are already out
For teachers: No more interruptions, automatic record-keeping, and insights into break patterns.
Students use ClassCheckpoint in 3 simple steps:
- Step 1: Type their 4-digit code and click "Sign Out" when they need a break
- Step 2: Take their break (the system tracks how long they're gone)
- Step 3: Type their code again and click "Sign In" when they return
If too many students are already out, they'll be added to a queue and notified when it's their turn.
No special equipment needed! ClassCheckpoint works on devices you likely already have:
- Any computer, laptop, or tablet with internet
- Chromebooks work perfectly
- No software to install - it runs in any web browser
- Place one device near your classroom exit for student access
That's it! You're ready to go.
Setting up is quick and easy:
- Step 1: Create your class schedule (when your class periods start and end)
- Step 2: Add your students by typing names or importing from Google Classroom
- Step 3: Print the automatically generated 4-digit codes for each student
- Step 4: Start the student interface on your classroom device
Most teachers complete setup in under 10 minutes!
Yes! Google Classroom integration makes setup super fast:
- Connect your Google account with one click
- Choose which classes you want to import
- All student names automatically populate
- Unique codes are generated instantly
- Takes less than 2 minutes per class
You can also add students manually or upload a simple list if you prefer.
Each student gets a unique 4-digit code (like 1234) that identifies them in the system:
- Automatically generated from student names
- Easy to remember - just 4 numbers
- Private to each student - prevents unauthorized use
- Printable lists available for easy distribution
Students simply memorize their code and use it whenever they need a break.
Yes, you can! As a teacher, you have full control over the queue from your dashboard.
If you need to remove a student or sign someone back in manually, look for the "X" icon. There are two places where this is available:
- Student List: In your dashboard settings, you can enable "Show 'X' next to student names". This allows you to quickly sign a student back in or remove them from the queue directly from the main list.
- Navigation Bar: There is also an "X" icon located in the navigation bar for quick access to clear the current active session or queue item if needed.
These settings ensure that if a student forgets to sign back in or if you need to clear the queue for any reason, you can do so instantly.
No, it actually reduces your workload! Here's how:
- No interruptions: Students don't ask permission during lessons
- Automatic tracking: No manual record-keeping required
- Self-managing: System runs independently once set up
- Instant reports: Break data available when you need it
- Set and forget: Works quietly in the background
