HOLIDAY ADOPT-A-FAMILY

Every year, Tri-Center works with different community organizations to help out families over the holidays who are experiencing hardship. We would like to offer the fixings for a Thanksgiving meal, a Christmas meal, and gifts for Christmas.

While we cannot promise to help out every applicant, we will try to help out as many families as we have sponsors for. Your information in this form will remain confidential and will only be shared with the team of people responsible for organizing families, sponsors, and delivering goods.

Through this program, your child will discreetly receive a food pack of various food items every Friday afternoon during the school year, starting September 18th. The food is at no cost to you or your child. If you would like your student to participate in this program, please reach out to our school nurse, Amanda Stamp, at amanda.stamp@tctrojans.org or 712-485-2211.

Dear Tri-Center families,

Tri-Center High School invites you to come and cheer the Trojans to victory at home games.  In an effort to maintain a SAFE environment so that ALL fans can enjoy the game, the Tri-Center Community School District is asking parents to please help us in our effort by reviewing these expectations before attending a game:

• PK-6 students should be accompanied by an adult
• Students should  sit in the bleachers with their peers or with their parents.  This is a great opportunity to spend time with family or friends cheering on the Trojans and learning about the sport.
• Please do NOT bring footballs, soccer balls, etc.  These create hazards for all fans.  Parents should supervise their children closely to minimize roughhousing that could result in injury.
• Please do not allow children to roam the football complex or buildings or play unsupervised in the cafetorium during indoor events.
• Always exhibit good sportsmanship.  
• Be respectful of all players, officials, and fans
• NO PETS ARE ALLOWED at TC events.
• All Tri-Center facilities and parking lots are smoke-free (including vapor and e-cigarettes), alcohol-free, and drug-free.
• Help us speed up the line by purchasing a ticket on Bound prior to the game or with a card at the gate.  If paying with cash, please bring exact change.  Admission is $7.

We look forward to seeing you at T-C to cheer on the Trojans!
