Students should have an option on their profile page - some may want to stay in the class, but some may want to leave.

Yes, but people who are in class are not going to be happy when a teacher is like “oh, this is lying around” and close the class, deleting all of the student's accounts by accident. If a teacher has not been active for over 6 months, whatever program or other that warrants it's creation is probably over, so if it is turned into a studio the teacher can't accidentally remove and such. People like the dude with the chocolate bar for a pfp wouldn't have to worry about their class being deleted and thus their account.

Yeah, quite a few teachers do that.

This would solve random classes just floating around scratch. But wouldn't automating it take a long time? Or will scratch team do it manually.

Automated

But why? What's wrong with just leaving them as classes - there aren't any restrictions with that. This would just be unnecessarily complicated

Incase the teacher closes the classes when there is still an active student or two.
