HPT.School
Whole-school hall pass tracking, built for schools like yours.
In pilot · launching for the 2026–27 school year
HallPassTracker started as a tool one classroom teacher built for himself, because every commercial option was bloated, overpriced, or built for the largest districts. HPT.School brings that same simplicity to your whole campus — at a price that makes sense for independent and charter schools.
-
Your own subdomain Each school runs at
yourschool.hpt.school— separate from every other school. -
Student data stays yours Rosters and pass history live on your school’s own Google Drive. Student PII is never stored, sold, or transmitted through our servers.
-
No per-student fees 80 students or 800, the price is the same. Pricing is by rooms, not enrollment.
-
Live in 24 hours No implementation project, no IT ticket, no six-week onboarding. If you can set up a Google account, you can set up HPT.School.
-
Built by a classroom teacher Designed from the inside out — not a startup that consulted a few teachers.
Founding-school rates are locked for life and limited to the first 50 schools.
Every school gets its own address and its own data.
