Indiana Academy Special Events Update

Thursday, March 12, 2020

Indiana Academy Parents, Students, and Staff:

In an e-mail from the president of Ball State yesterday, we were informed that “all University-sponsored/funded events of 100 people or more” are suspended from March 16th to April 30th. This decision, along with many other campus precautions, was made in response to the rapidly changing situation with COVID-19.

The following Indiana Academy events fall within the scope of this announcement and have been suspended:

• Lip Sync and Talent Show (March 19th)
• Prom (April 4th)
• Academy Awards and Slideshow Banquet (April 22nd)

This is disappointing news for all of us at the Academy, but please know that our priority is for the safety and well-being of our students, staff, and families. Many thanks to the SLCs, PAs, and students who have dedicated time and effort into planning excellent events. In our efforts to celebrate the 2019-2020 Academy school year, we plan to continue with Academy Awards voting and Slideshow production.

Thank you for your understanding and patience as we navigate our way forward.
