At Tri-County, providing students with the best education is a top priority. We believe that lessons happen both in and out of the classroom. Whether that be providing students the opportunity to explore a firetruck or ambulance, to read a new novel or get hands-on with an engine, we allow education to go beyond the walls of our building.

Our High School Sports teams have excellent players. We are confident in our programs, and their ability to create great players that excel on and off the court. Unlike many big schools, everyone at Tri-County is an important part of the team. Each player gets to show their skills, and gets focused attention from the coaches, something that larger schools cannot always offer.
|
Our Elementary Sports programs are dedicated to teaching the skills needed for each sport, but also to teach the values that we find important at Tri-County, like hard work, sportsmanship and dedication, to name a few.
|
|
Non-Athletic Programs
We are passionate about our non-athletic programs, also. We feel students can learn incredible lessons whether that be on stage in drama, or mid-meet in Knowledge Bowl. There are great things to learn, but also, there is fun to be had. We know that the bonds students form in all our programs last a lifetime.

TC at State
Overs the years, nearly every program at Tri-County has advanced to state tournaments. We are proud of these accomplishments. Our students, coaches, advisors, and all others involved work hard, and we are happy to see their hard work pay off.
|
TC at Nationals
In the last few years, our FCCLA program has brought multiple students to compete at the national level. Two TC students advanced in 2020! We applaud their hard work, and dedication. We are so proud of their accomplishment. They have represented Tri-County well.
|
Arts
To give students a better view of the world, Tri-County is proud to host multiple artists from the Artists in Residency program each year. The artists vary from year-to-year, working with different grades. Pictured above, elementary students paint with an artist. In the past, Tri-County has hosted spoken word artists, performers from the circus, poets and more!

Visual
Our superior Visual Arts program is second to none. In 2018 alone, two TC students were selected as Spotlight pieces at an art contest where only 12 total awards were given.
|
Musical
Our vocal and instrumental programs hit just the right notes, and prove time and time again that practice makes perfect. Their hard work shows. Listen to just how good they are at the winter or spring concert.
|
Culinary
Our Culinary Arts program is part of our FACS (Family and Consumer Sciences) program. Although they do not participate in contests, they leave this course with the skills needed to be better adults.
|
Technology
Pictured above, a SMART Board in a classroom is ready for students to experience more interactive lessons. One of the many pieces of technology at Tri-County, SMART Boards allow teachers to play videos, have a digital whiteboard, display their computer screen and more.
A passion at Tri-County is to teach students using the most effective methods. To do this, we are constantly updating our facility to have various types technology, like SMART Boards, a full Mac and PC computer lab, and iPads for students and staff.
