It is hard to believe that we are approaching the end of another school year. But as it does every year, spring has definitely arrived. The track, baseball, and softball teams have all begun their respective seasons and the smell of fresh cut grass is once again becoming commonplace.  It is a hectic season for both educators and students as we enter the standardized testing season with the end of the school year field trips and activities soon to follow.

We have several district employees who have retired this year or have announced their plans to retire at the end of the school year. I would like to thank the following Tri-Valley Employees for their service to the school district:

Tony Seckman – Bus Driver

Paula Seckman – Bus Driver

Tom Booze – Bus Driver

Rebecca Moore – Head Cook at Nashport

Cassie Siegrist – Head Cook at TVHS

Mary Joan Lewis – Kindergarten Teacher at Nashport Elementary

Robin Shroyer – Aide at Dresden Elementary

Toni Rotella – Middle School Librarian

There is a lot going on around the district as our eighth graders prepare for their annual field trip to our nation’s capital on May 10-13. The Sixth graders will be wrapping up their school year with their annual trip to Kings Island outing on May 5^th for Dresden and Adamsville Elementary Schools and on May 12 for Frazeysburg and Nashport. Commencement will be held at Jack Anderson Stadium on Friday, May 26^th at 7:00 PM. I would like to personally invite the entire TV Community to our ceremony as we recognize the 2?? graduates of the Class of 2017.
