[App] Set Expiration Dates for Hall Pass Student Exclusion Groups Overview

You can now set student exclusion groups to automatically delete themselves on a specific date! No more manually tracking which temporary behavioral groups need to be removed - the system handles it for you.

Perfect for temporary situations Many exclusion groups are created for short-term disciplinary situations or behavioral interventions that have natural end dates. Instead of having to remember to manually clean up these groups later, you can now set them to expire automatically when they're no longer needed.

Simple setup process When creating or editing a student exclusion group, you'll see a new option:

• Checkbox setting: "This group should be deleted automatically"
• Date selection: Choose when the group should be removed

Automatic cleanup happens behind the scenes Once you set an expiration date, you can forget about it. The system will automatically delete the exclusion group at the specified time, removing all restrictions between those students without any action needed from your team.

Great for common scenarios This feature is especially helpful for situations like:

• Short-term disciplinary separations with specific end dates set by administration
• Behavioral intervention periods that conclude after a set number of weeks
• Temporary conflicts between students that resolve naturally over time

Keeps your exclusions current By automatically removing expired groups, your Hall Pass exclusion lists stay clean and relevant. You won't have old, unnecessary restrictions cluttering your system or accidentally preventing students from getting passes when situations have been resolved.

Easy to manage The expiration setting appears in the same place where you add notes about exclusion groups, making it a natural part of your workflow when setting up behavioral management protocols.
