Parent Tech Help
Starting Monday November 22nd 2021, Bloomz will be your one stop shop for everything besides student grades. You will use it to see a social media style feed of any classes that you have a student enrolled in, along with a whole school feed where all important announcements and information will be posted. You can also use it to check the school calendar and will be the way to contact teachers.
You can use Bloomz via the website (click Sign in in the top right) or as an app: Android or iPhone.
To begin, please check your email for a message with sign up information and then follow this slideshow to get setup and choose your notification preferences (do you want to get a text, email, or push notification when your teacher posts things?) This video has a quick tour of the app.

Synergy is our Student Information System and is used to track grades, attendance, and produce report cards. Parents can access this information using the web portal or the ParentVUE app. Students in 6th-8th grade may use the StudentVUE app to check their grades.

The MRA Families Facebook group is a place for families to connect, ask each other questions, welcome new families, and offer help, in a respectful environment that's moderated by MRA. MRA will no longer be posting information there, it will all be on Bloomz or the website.

Gmail will only be used to communicate with potential families and others not already part of the MRA community. All families at MRA will use Bloomz to connect with school staff.
The MRA website that you are currently on will continue to be a place to come to download forms, see details on specific events, learn about the board and PCT, and get other helpful information. Day to day news and upcoming events will be on Bloomz.
FlashAlert is how we send out emergency messages about closures and delays. You will need to download the app and and sign up to get alerts from MRA. Alerts will also go out in Bloomz, but sending them through FlashAlert allows local news channels to see them. Download FlashAlert on either Android or iPhone
