TCCS Parents and Guardians:
Student registration is currently open, and we are reminding parents to please register ASAP. If you have not registered your student (s) they will not be on a bus list for the coming school year which means that we will not know to pick them up. We have three new bus drivers this year so this is imperative for parents to complete registration preferably by tonight. Once we know your child’s bus information, we will have the driver’s contact parents with pick up and drop off times.
Meet the Teacher night is Thursday from 4-6:00 PM. We encourage students to bring their school supplies with them. Elementary students are invited to visit the concession stand before leaving the building.
School begins on Friday at 8 AM.
The State database which provides all the schools in Indiana with direct certification information for meal benefits continues to be down for maintenance.
Directly certified families are those receiving SNAP, TANF, some Medicaid recipients, and foster children.
If you are unsure if your student will be directly certified, you may complete the online application through your portal.
Once the site is up and running again, we will send emailed and/or U.S. mail notifications to those households that are directly certified.
We apologize for any inconvenience.
When registering your students, please remember to complete the free and reduced application for meal benefits. Meal benefit applications must be done every school year. If you are unsure if your qualify, feel free to complete the application, and we'll check on it for you.
Welcome to our new Middle/High School Assistant Principal Mrs. Amanda Wiley!
Tri-Central admin attended the "Tipton County Back to School" event tonight. Great turn out! School starts on 8/4/23.
Great free event for TC families.
The Tri-Central Community mourn the loss of long-time bus driver of Route #11, Denny Amsbury. Denny passed away Sunday morning after a short battle with cancer. Denny served our Tri-Central students for over 30+ years as he followed in his father's footsteps as a TC bus driver. His reliability and dedication to the students on his route was unmatched. His smiling face every morning as he greeted our students will be sorely missed. People like Denny are what makes a small school like Tri-Central be so special.
Please keep Denny's family and the Tri-Central Community in your prayers.
