Banning Lewis Academy is a K–12 public charter school where relationships, rigorous academics, and unique experiences drive success. Guided by our Criteria for Success and Instructional Model, we prepare lifelong learners who Live Safely, Engage with Respect, Act with Kindness, Demonstrate Responsibility, and contribute positively to a global society.
We live for Every Student, Every Day! We believe future generations will profoundly impact our nation and world when equipped with strong academics and social-emotional skills. Our work matters because we educate and empower students to thrive in school, in life, and in their postsecondary pursuits.
Our goal is to raise funds that strengthen BLA’s reputation across the Pikes Peak Region by showcasing our programs, hosting Parent University nights, and celebrating volunteers—building family connections and empowering parents for future generations.
BLA serves over 1600 families that attend from myriad backgrounds and we work to grow Every Student Every Day! 40% of our population is military affiliated.
