Statewide Forum Follow Up |

Recently Governor Holcomb issued an executive order that creates possibilities for afterschool providers to support schools, families and students during the current pandemic.
On September 1, IAN hosted a statewide forum discussing the implications of the order and how providers can provide these essential services to schools. The forum also hosted schools and programs that have partnered in this process and a review tools you can use to also partner in providing the essential e-learning support students and families need.

- Tiffany D. Barrett, Director of Member Services - Indiana Association of School Principals
