The Tri County 3rd graders had a Seusstastical Read Across America Week! They spent the week "Reading Across Nebraska," by trying to read 459 books as a class. They were star readers and were able to read 508 books! 📚

The juniors had a great day visiting University of Nebraska Lincoln today! They explored both City Campus and East Campus, learned more about college life, enjoyed lunch in a dining hall, and wrapped up the trip with some ice cream at the UNL Dairy Store.

Tri County Celebrates 3rd Annual Bookmark Design Contest

One of our favorite Read Across America traditions returned again this year with Tri County’s 3rd Annual Bookmark Design Contest. This contest has quickly become a student favorite, and many students look forward to the opportunity to showcase their creativity while celebrating reading.

Students from each grade level submitted original bookmark designs, and winners were selected from four divisions. This year’s winners are:

PK/K: Sadie Kalin
1st/2nd: Kelsey Hurd
3rd/4th: Tie — William Marshall and two-time winner Lane Roberts
5th/6th: Teran Koch

One of the most exciting parts of the contest is seeing the winning designs professionally printed and used as official Tri County library bookmarks. Our students love receiving them when they check out books, making the experience even more special.

Congratulations to this year’s winners and thank you to all of our students who participated!
