Congratulations to our 2026 Homecoming King and Queen, Owen Lewandowski and Olive Clark! Thankfully the weather held off until right after coronation last night. We tried something new and brought back our King and Queen from 2006, Lucas Buss and Stacey (Parrot) Stohs. 2025 King Ben came back to crown Owen and unfortunately Queen Kennadee was unable to make it back this year. Our crown bearers, Tate Wollenburg and Paisley Oliver did a fantastic job! Thank you to all of the Tri County students, staff, fans, and alumni for such a fantastic week of Homecoming! The dance tonight goes from 7-10. Stay tuned for pictures from that, as the Student Council did a fantastic job of decorating for our theme of Rio!

Happy PTO Appreciation Day to our incredible Tri County PTO! From funding playground equipment and TC pride shirts to providing track and field day ribbons, field trip support, and year-round teacher treats, our PTO works tirelessly to support our school, staff, and students.

We are so grateful for the countless ways they show up for TC, but they can’t do it alone! They are always looking for extra hands. Whether you can offer a simple donation or just an hour or two to help support an event, every bit makes a massive difference for our kids.

Want to get involved? Send an email to TriCountyPTO@gmail.com to see how you can lend a hand and help support our school community! 💙💛

With rain in the forecast, we will use the following plan for tonight’s Homecoming candidate introductions & coronation. We’ll make a game-time decision based on the weather.

If rain prevents the queen candidates from being introduced at halftime, the King & Queen candidate introductions will be combined with the coronation ceremony. If it is still raining at the end of the game we will move the coronation into the high school auditorium immediately following the football game.

We’ll keep everyone updated as we know more. Thank you for your flexibility and understanding!

We want to share a brief reminder following reports of concerning phone calls involving families at some school districts in communities across Nebraska. While we don't want to cause alarm, we do want our families to be aware and know what to do if they receive an unexpected call regarding their child or a situation at school.

If you ever receive a phone call that you are unsure about or that seems unusual, please hang up and contact the school directly using our published phone number (402) 683-2015 to verify the information. Taking a moment to confirm that a message truly came from the school can help prevent confusion and ensure you have accurate information.

We will continue to communicate directly with families when there is important information regarding our students or school. When in doubt, please reach out to us, we are always happy to verify a call or message.

Thank you for your continued partnership and for helping us keep our school community informed and safe.

6th Grade Social Studies classes have been learning all about Cave Art and Investigating the Past in their Ancient Civilizations class. They practiced thinking like an archaeologist to explore the "Cave" in the auditorium to learn about cave art, prehistoric tools, and artifacts.
