In a school that uses FlexTime periods, teachers may need to manage and oversee activities even if they are not directly responsible for leading those activities. Now, Owners can turn ON the setting to let teachers register and assign students to other teachers' activities as well.

Earlier, this was released for FlexTime module but now it applies to My Class and student profile as well.

For a wider view of all FlexTime updates, be sure to check out our release notes from December 12th, for the 7.12.0 release.

Students want to know which FlexTime activities they can register for and visibility into why they cannot register for others. Now, Students will see the remaining seat count for available activities and greyed-out activities when the activities are full or restricted.

Students:

Adding one FlexTime activity at a time can be time-consuming and tedious. Now, you can select multiple Activities at a time when setting up a FlexTime Period.

Not every student that you assign hall passes or behaviors to will be on your class lists, and that should not limit you from finding that student quickly in MyClass. Now, Teachers can search for students in My Class even when no user list is selected, and assign them any actions.

When assigning or registering a student to a FlexTime Activity, Teachers sometimes need to give more context, instructions, or directions for the student, and this context also needs to be visible to the admin team.

Now, Teachers can send notes to students when assigning/registering them for FlexTime via My Class, and these notes will be available to students through notifications and to admins through reports.

Teachers often need access to reports so they can see how many hall passes, check-ins, or Behaviors they have assigned to a student or other teachers have assigned to them. Previously, an admin would need to add the teachers to a Report Viewer's list, making the process manual and prone to missing some teachers.

Now, a setting has been added in each Minga module to Allow teachers to view reports, giving teachers report viewing permission for that module in one click.

Owners:

Previously, Minga restricted teachers to managing only one activity per FlexTime period. This meant teachers had to schedule different activities at different times or share responsibilities with other staff. We’ve eliminated that limitation.

Teachers and Admins can now assign multiple activities to the same teacher during a single FlexTime period.

Previously, only Admins had the convenience of registering students into FlexTime activities from the student’s profile. Teachers had to navigate through the entire FlexTime roster—an inefficient process for quick updates. We’ve streamlined that workflow. Now, both Admins and Teachers can register students into FlexTime activities directly from the student’s profile page.

Minga now supports auto‑generated user lists that update themselves based on criteria you define—no more manually adjusting lists when students enroll, transfer, or change schedules.

Until now, only the lead teacher could check students in using Kiosk Mode for FlexTime activities. This caused delays when students arrived before that teacher or when activities spanned multiple entry points. Now, any teacher assigned to an activity can launch Kiosk Mode and check in students—no more bottlenecks, no more missed attendance.

Minga now allows admins to set a default visibility option for new user lists, saving time and improving cross-staff collaboration.

Admins can now update the visibility of multiple user lists at once—no more changing them one by one.

Previously, the report exports were delivered via email but this introduced delays and added friction when accessing the report as the admins have to navigate away from Minga to their email inbox. Now, report exports will auto-download directly to your device the moment they’re ready. This streamlines your access to important data and reduces the need to hop between platforms.

Admin, Teachers, Staff:

Seamless connection with Omella to allow schools to collect payments and registrations for student activities and events. Event organizers can now enable payments directly from the event creation process in Minga. Whether you're hosting a dance, fundraiser, or graduation ceremony, Omella makes it simple to collect payments securely and efficiently.

Will the ticket data sync back to Minga if I buy using Omella?

No, the data does not automatically sync between Minga and Omella curently. The event organizer will have to manually manage the data.

We’ve expanded FlexTime functionality to allow teachers to manage any activity, not just the ones they’re assigned to. This gives schools more flexibility in supporting and supervising students during Flex periods.

For Admins

To enable this feature:

For Teachers

Once enabled:

Teacher FlexTime Settings: Added new toggles for teachers to enable/disable student self-registration on a per-session basis.

We’ve enhanced how student names appear throughout Minga by separating First and Last Name fields. A small change that makes a big impact when searching, sorting, and assigning students. You can now sort students by First Name or Last Name independently.

This enhancement improves system performance and supports administrators who need to manage high volumes of data efficiently. Instead of waiting for downloads to complete within the browser, large exports will now be processed and delivered directly to your inbox.

Teachers can access resources right from their MyTools page without having to search through the platform for the answers they need. Teachers can now access on-demand training resources and how-to videos directly from their My Tools Dashboard.

Teacher can now see their schedule at a glance every day and quickly jump into the right class with pre-loaded rosters. The Today’s Schedule widget is now permanently visible on the My Tools Dashboard, offering a live, clickable view of the daily class schedule.

The My Class page now features a clearer, more helpful empty state that guides users to quickly select and filter their class roster.

Teachers can now register or assign students to upcoming FlexTime activities directly from the My Class interface. This streamlines the process and eliminates the need to switch screens, making scheduling more efficient.

Teachers can now check students in to ongoing FlexTime activities directly via My Class, simplifying attendance tracking during scheduled sessions.

Teachers can now check in students with a reason directly from the My Class page, allowing for a more transparent and accountable check-in process.

Teachers can now toggle between list view and card view within My Class. This provides flexibility in how student data is displayed—allowing for either a compact overview or a more detailed view of student information.

Students added to the "No Registration List" are now automatically blocked from registering for any FlexTime activities. This ensures that only eligible students can participate in sessions, maintaining the integrity of your scheduling.

Students in "No Party Groups" are now blocked from registering for the same FlexTime activity.

Students can now self-check-in to FlexTime activities by scanning a QR code.

Additional context can now be added when checking in students for FlexTime activities.

Students can now earn points for attending FlexTime sessions.

Check-ins will only be allowed during the designated FlexTime session, blocking early or late check-ins.

Students arriving late to FlexTime sessions will now be marked as tardy.

Easily duplicate previously created activities to reduce repetitive setup and maintain consistency across recurring sessions.

Multiple teachers can now be assigned to a single activity, enabling shared facilitation and improved session coverage.

Admins can now enforce registration deadlines to lock student sign-ups prior to activity start times.

Staff-facing registration deadlines allow for more stable scheduling and reduced last-minute changes.

Activities can now be sorted by staff first or last name for faster access and improved visibility.

Enable auto-registration based on homeroom teachers or preselected activities, streamlining the registration process for both students and staff ensuring students have activities.

You can now select your current Flextime activity as a UserList to manage your FlexActivity in the same way you manage your regular class.
