Indiana School Assembly Programs 2014-2015
Although Mobile Ed Productions is based in Michigan, our school shows, school assemblies, and school assembly programs have been visiting schools in Indiana since the very beginnings of Mobile Ed back in 1979. Our school assemblies began visiting Indiana schools during our first year of existence, and our school assemblies are still wildly popular there today. Many schools in Indiana have enjoyed our educational school assembly programs, not just in Indianapolis and it's suburbs, but throughout the state from Crown Point, and Fort Wayne in the north to Evansville in the south and in countless other communities across the state. We are proud to count as friends school principals and PTO coordinators across the state and are equally proud of the contribution we have made with our school assemblies in over thirty years of serving Indiana schools. Most of our fine school assemblies are available throughout Indiana every school year but specific dates for some programs may be limited.
