Leave a school, all classes, or a class

You can leave all classes, a specific class or a school by responding to that text message thread:

  • @LEAVE to leave all classes owned by a teacher.                    leave_all_classes.png                                                   
  • @LEAVE "class code" to leave a specific class but stay in a teacher's other classes.  Leave_a_specific_classes.png  
  • @LEAVE to leave a conversation. You'll no longer receive any responses in that conversation, and won't be able to rejoin it. The teacher can add you again if desired. leave_a_conversation.png
  • @LEAVE "school code" - Leave a school and all the classes linked to it. Although the confirmation text currently only says "class" after the school name, you have successfully left the school and all associated classes.                                leave_all_classes_and_school.png
