💙💛 Fill Your Bucket Friday! 💙💛

For our second Fill Your Bucket Friday, we’re celebrating Ms. Reuland!

Ms. Reuland is kind, thoughtful, and incredibly patient, especially when she’s teaching us math! She meets her students with encouragement, understanding, and a willingness to help us until it clicks.

Ms. Reuland, we appreciate you and all the ways you help everyone at TC!

💙 Fill Your Bucket Friday! 💙

This was shared on our student-managed Instagram page, @tricountyschools, last Friday, but we felt it deserved a spot here, too. We want everyone to know just how much we appreciate Mr. Ramos, our new high school paraeducator!

As multiple students in our Advanced Publication class began sharing how wonderful Mr. Ramos has been, how he interacts with students, shows up for kids, and genuinely cares about all students, we knew we needed to make sure he knew just how appreciated he is.

Our class presented him with a handwritten card filled with notes and messages about the positive impact he is already making at TC.

And naturally… a Fill Your Bucket Friday story was born!

Thank you, Mr. Ramos, for all you do for our students and for being such a wonderful addition to the TC family! We are so glad you’re here!

Check out these kindergarten superstars! We have been practicing our independent reading rotation skills, and everyone is stepping up to the challenge.Our little learners do a fantastic job managing both their Word Work and Journals independently. This independent focus allows us to get some wonderful small-group time in. We are also doing so well working together during our small-group reading rotation! From the start of school to now, the progress they’ve made is absolutely incredible. They have come such a long way and are working so hard. Way to go, kindergarten!

7th graders in Mr. Simpson's social studies class take 2D maps of the world and turn them into 3D globes. The activity illustrates how distance and shape can be distorted on regular maps, while a globe is the most accurate depiction of planet Earth.

Tri County Football opened the season with an exciting victory over Centennial last night!

The Trojans showed toughness, discipline, and determination from the opening kickoff to the final whistle. It was a tremendous team effort and a great way to start the season.

Garrett Smidt led the way on offense with 34 carries for 215 yards and 4 TD's. Nick Sullivan led the defense with 10 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, and 1 sack.

Thank you to our students, parents, fans, cheerleaders, and community members who packed the stands and created an outstanding atmosphere!

It’s HOME GAME night! The Trojans take on Centennial tonight with kickoff at 7:00 PM!

With construction underway, please take a minute to review tonight’s parking:

🚫 NO PARKING on the west hill or in the paved parking lot next to the elementary school.

We appreciate everyone’s patience and cooperation as we navigate construction!
