Disable public class display on profile

When you are a scratcher who is in a class, your class is publicly displayed on your profile. This can pose a privacy issue as if you are active in the community, people will see your profile and they may be able to find out your city or state. I think there should be a option to toggle this either on the students profile or the teachers, preferably both. If this is already a feature, please report this to be closed as I don't know much about teacher/student accounts.

There's no way to hide the class, so carry on.
(I meant this as like “carry on with your suggestion”)

Yes I agree, because even if you aren't giving personal info, the teacher and the other students in the class might do that and then everyone could find out your location too. I'm not following some of my irl friends, just because they are part of a class where some students gave out their street names. I feel like that is really dangerous for the other people in the class!

I agree as a school name can give a good idea of where someone lives and a lot of teachers may not want students locations public

Yeah, people could possibly need to use their real full name for class, I've seen some school accounts with seemingly real usernames

But maybe teachers could chose public or private in the class settings I don't know if that's a thing if not, in the teacher's account settings

That's the whole point of the suggestion.

Plus, from what I have heard, I'm pretty sure you cannot change being on the class. I can remember a user who graduated from a fourth grade class a long time ago, and after he passed, it still said on his profile that he was a fourth grader. So, I think I agree with you there. It being made public is oftentimes unwanted.

I think that we should be able to voluntarily leave from a class.

Yes, but that's a different suggestion.
