Bridge Projects in Indy, Solar Eclipse School Closures, Free Eclipse Glasses, IMPD Rejects Gunshot Detection System, Girls Scouts Criticized for Not Serving Black Girls
At least fourteen bridge projects in Indianapolis are scheduled for work during the 2024 construction season. All Marion County public schools have either canceled school or will be doing remote learning for the solar eclipse on April 8. The Marion County Public Health Department will hand out free solar eclipse glasses to help view the event safely. Indianapolis police announced late last week they will not be investing in a gunshot detection system. The Girl Scouts of Central Indiana is facing criticism from two local groups that say it is not doing a good job of serving Black girls.
