Technology Update

Technology update:


After evaluation of the BLA app and usage report, Banning Lewis Academy has determined to discontinue use of the app effective immediately. The app was out of date with content which added in the decision to stop use.

We determined that Stallion families use the app for primarily two purposes:

1.Reporting absences and

2.School calendar

3.Push notifications from the Academy


Please note that you are still able to report your student absent via the parent page on the Academy website which can be located and saved as an icon short cut button onto your smart device:

https://www.blracademy.org/student-absence


The school calendar can also be located on the website under the calendar page or by using this link:

For notifications, we will utilize our School Messenger platform via PowerSchool. This platform allows BLA to send notifications via text notification and/or voicemail.


We apologize for any confusion that this may have caused and want to ensure our Stallion families that we are evolving our technology this year to best meet your needs. Be on the look out for our new website that will be released very soon!
