I wish middle and high school classrooms could have bathrooms inside their rooms like my kindergarten classroom.

“Bathroom” trips often turn into 30 minutes of roaming the building. Then admin will blame the teachers when students go everywhere they’re not supposed to.

Then when they come back, they'll be like "i dont understand anything that youre teaching." And tell their parents "she dont teach us anything" when they fail.

We don't let them be gone that long. We can't leave our whole class to look for one kid.

I’m thinking that the atmosphere in the classroom improves greatly when these students are on extended breaks. Win-win.

Because no matter how many referrals or parent communications the behavior doesn’t change. And sometimes the kid just walks out without accountability

I had a student who was gone so long I jokingly accused him of cheating on us by attending classes at another school.

The teacher can do attendance, let a kid go to the bathroom, then start teaching and helping other students. It's really easy to forget that you let a kid go to the bathroom when you start working. You don't notice until another kid asks to use the bathroom and then you realize that the pass is gone.

One high school implemented a mandatory sign in and out dated index card to show to the teacher when students return for the teacher's initial while the student keeps up with it.

Why go look for someone?\n And leave your whole class. No, sir. They don't come back happy day.

MS :
So you think I should leave my 30 other kids in a room alone to go find one student?

My school started using 5-Star for bathroom sign outs. So it keeps track of how long they’ve been out and how many times they’ve been out. Our principal started calling home and parents requested to revoke bathroom usage during class for their child. And I’m talking about students who have now missed 15+ hours of instruction because of abuse of bathroom pass.

“Yo, yo miss. I gotta go to da bathroom. Miss why you not letting me go, I gotta take a piss! I can’t hold it anymore. This is crazy, I gotta piss, yo, you want me to piss on the floor? My doctor said I have a condition, I gotta go or else I get sick. Miss, yo, that’s not fair! I gotta go!”

This is why I take the entire class.. when one student ask to go.. I take the entire class. I let everyone go to the bathroom. Then there’s no reason to ask to leave anymore.. kids hate it. I tell them. I can’t rust you to go and come back.

I had to implement a sign out/in sheet because I kept getting major attitude for saying they were gone too long. Suddenly no one takes more than 6 minutes to use the restroom. 😏

Had a kindergartener walk across the entire school (three wings!) to use the bathroom - there is a bathroom literally across the hallway. We had a chat. 🤦🏻♀️
