Students at a high school in Wisconsin are upset about their district's new electronic pass system that limits the number of times a student can use the bathroom during the school day and week.

The new ePass system at Arrowhead Union High School, located in a suburb of Milwaukee, functions as an electronic hall pass that students must use to take bathroom breaks during school hours.

Seriously what if someone eats something bad. Has to go to the bathroom 3 times on Monday. Come Friday they just shit/piss themselves, or bleed through their clothes?

That's a great way to scar kids for life. Life happens

    Just gotta remind the teacher that the 5 o'clock news will use their full name when they report they punished a kid for going to the bathroom, which will look really fucking bad in a google search, and any teacher with a lick of common sense will shut right the fuck up and wave the kid out.

    The teachers have nothing to do with it. It's an actual electronic monitoring pass.

    Somebody has to actually enforce it at the end of the day. That person has a name and the W-2 listing the school as their employer. Without that you can do whatever electronic nonsense you want. Rules are a social system not a technical system
