ACADEMY SUSTAINS IN-PERSON INSTRUCTION Living up to its ranking as one of America’s top 100 prep schools, Academy found a new normal, adjusting tradition and routine to meet the needs of our employees, students, and families to complete a year of in-person instruction. We created a campus “bubble” with more than 25% of our staff working remotely and a campus that was only open to students and those faculty and staff working on campus. A new academic schedule included the earliest start in Academy history, with uninterrupted fall and spring semesters sandwiching a two-month holiday break. Family weekends, student performances, faculty recitals, and theatre productions went virtual. Dance classes were on tennis courts, reading was under the pines, and meals were lakeside.
We pledged to: Protect Myself; Protect Others; Protect Our Community.
Against the odds—with hard work and collaboration—we kept students safe for the entire school year.
CAMP 2021: ART, LAUGHTER, AND PASSION RETURN TO CAMP
Interlochen Arts Camp resumed for its 94th year!
Nearly 2,100 campers from around the country and the world gathered under the stately pines to create art, make friends, and experience the best summer of their lives. With health and safety the highest priority, Camp life returned through lowered enrollment, high vaccination rates, and students grouped by artistic area, age, and gender identity.
