Email Betsy SchroederDear Beloit Learning Academy Families,
We are excited to welcome students back onsite this fall and I am honored to serve as BLA’s next principal. For the past three years, I was BLA’s assistant principal and interim principal and look forward to celebrating the 10th anniversary of BLA this fall. Our dedicated staff, determined students and supportive families make BLA a special place. We can’t wait for the 2021-2022 school year to begin!
Please be aware that Skyward registration is now open online for the 2021-2022 school year. Families who need help registering online are welcome to visit us at Fruzen Intermediate (2600 Milwaukee Road) on Tuesday, August 10 or Thursday, August 19 from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 3:00 PM to 7:00 PM. We can help you log into Skyward, complete the registration steps and pay fees. Please call our office at 361-4300 if you have any questions.
Please plan to meet with BLA staff on Wednesday, September 1 for back to school conferences. We will be in touch with you soon to schedule a time. Our first day of classes at BLA will be Thursday, September 2. A BLA calendar is included which also has other important information such as the school schedule and staff contact information.
Thank you for being a part of #TEAM BLA.
