New Student Email Setup Instructions

Every student at RPA receives a student email account through Gmail™.  It is important to set up your email as soon as possible, to begin receiving important emails from RPA.  Email is the primary way RPA staff communicates with students (and parents) about important school information.  Your email needs to be activated in order to access Alma, our student information system, to check your grades, schedule, course history, and attendance.  Alma setup instructions will be sent to your RPA student email address and parent’s email address(es) when you begin classes. We expect RPA students to check their email daily.

Please follow the steps below to set up your RPA email account:

1. Navigate to the RPA homepage, www.rpacademy.org.

2. Click on “Email” in the top right.

3. Use the following formula to enter your email address:  firstname_lastname@rpacademy.org

  (all lowercase)

4. Enter the following temporary password:  Rpa12345678

5. Your account should now be activated.  Follow the prompts to reset your password to something you will easily remember.
