Human-Covenant War
The Academy was attacked by Covenant forces mid 2526. This attack came by surprise, catching local forces unprepared and unaware of the Covenant's existance. With the aid of Spartan John-117 some personnel were able disperse into the surrounding jungle until reinforcements or evacuation could be secured.

The approximate date of the attack, and surprise of cadets upon seeing Covenant forces indicate this was one of the first skirmishes of the war after Harvest. The academy staff and students were almost completly annihilated.
