This is possible, but there’s not an existing plugin/component that does it.

No additional functionality needed alternative: Can you create a topic in “Class A” and then pin it? Then visitors would see a topic and its excerpt instead of a blank page, for example:

 ![27%20PM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/3/8/384475bb4e441fc4686b6c31fa3c99f4e5166373.png)
