Information about the 2020-2021 PSIA Competition (Grades 4-8)
Due to ongoing concerns about rising COVID cases, Lutheran South Academy has withdrawn from PSIA this year and will not be hosting the contest. Aristoi had similar concerns and was waiting to hear what safety measures LSA would be putting into place before committing to participating in PSIA.

Given the above, Aristoi will not be competing in PSIA this season.

Please email Blaine Locheed if you have any questions or concerns.
