Valentine's Day Party
The school-wide Valentine's Party will be February 14 at 1:30 PM. Students will be able to bring valentines to share with other classmates at Tri-City. The task of handing out valentines can be made easier by having your child sign his/her first name on the back of the valentines and not worrying about writing the receiving students' names on the front. We have 35 students and 19 staff. Call the school if your child needs valentines.
Parent/Teacher Conferences
February 15 from 3:00 - 6:00 PM
February 16 from 8:00 AM - 8 PM - No School for Students

Monthly Book Orders
Tri-City Day School encourages students to read outside of school. Once a month a book order form will be sent home with your child. The prices in these book orders tend to be a little more reasonable than the traditional book fairs. Books for levels K-12 will be available. The school will receive free books and points to purchase additional books from the students' purchases. Thank you in advance for your consideration.
P.B.I.S. - Positive Behavior Intervention & Support
Tri-City has implemented this program into our daily schedule. Each week the students are asked to state the definitions to "Pride". For each correct letter, the students earn one white loop. If he/she states all letters correct, a set of green, yellow and white loops are awarded. The loops are collected by each homeroom for a monthly reward party.
