A Staff-Only Room, Inside the App You Already Use

Staff-only Department groups whose posts never reach parents, plus a folder-organized Materials Hub with staff-only and member visibility, inside the app your staff already use.

A Staff-Only Room, Inside the App You Already Use

Apptegy sells Staff Connect. ClassDojo has Staff Chats. Both ask your team to log into one more place to find the handbook, post a reminder, or check what the front office needs this week. Bloomz’s version lives inside the app your staff already open every day.

A staff feed that’s actually a feed

Any K-12 Department group, a grade-level team, a committee or the whole faculty, can be marked staff-only, and posts to it never reach parents. Posting reuses the exact same Post pipeline families already use, reactions, comments, moderation, so it behaves like a real feed rather than a static bulletin board nobody checks. Membership is managed like any other group.

Materials Hub: one library, the right audience for each item

Handbooks, forms, and shared documents live in a nested-folder library, and every resource carries its own visibility: staff-only or group members. A staff handbook and a team’s shared files live in the same tool, correctly scoped. The same library works for any class or school group too, not only staff groups.

What it isn’t

There are no separately provisioned staff spaces and no delegated-posting role: staff-only is a setting on the Department groups you already have. That keeps one set of groups to manage instead of two.

Available now

The staff-only group setting and Materials Hub are part of Bloomz Complete. Your district turns them on. Take a look at the product page, or ask your success manager to enable it this year.
