Changes for Student Safety at Morning Drop Off
One Way Traffic on the 400 block of West St.
from 7:35AM to 8:00AM on School Days Starting December 1, 2025
TC School District and the Village of Plainfield Police Department have been working together to increase student safety and security around the school day drop off and pick up times. One way to improve student safety a great deal is to limit the crossing of students in front of and through the drop off traffic in the morning.
In order to protect all of our students the School and Village, with support from the County, have agreed to close S. West St. to any and all north bound traffic between Willey and Elizabeth St. from 7:35 AM until 8:05 AM on school days starting Monday, Dec. 1, 2025. Parents who need to enter school in the morning will need to park in either of the school parking lots and walk on designated paths to the office. See photo for details.
All drop off must be done by heading south on S. West St. and entering the designated drop off area, then pulling as far through as possible in order to fill the drop off zone. Cones and signage will be used to demarcate the new safety changes.
Thank you for your patience and support of our efforts to keep all of our children safe and healthy.
Artist of the Week - Callie Bacon is a freshman in 2D Art, section 1. Callie did a fantastic job with this small project about her own personal horoscope/birth date. Callie used 12" x 9" watercolor paper and inks to create her stunning tiger. Her contrast, use of color and dynamic subject matter made her work stand out!

We couldn't let this week pass without recognizing Mrs. Barbie Gransee. Tri-County is truly blessed and honored to have such an experienced and caring School Psychologist. During National School Psychology Week, we recognize how she helps our students find their path to success. She empowers students with the skills they need to navigate challenges, manage their emotions, and excel in school.
Thank you Mrs. Gransee!
Tri-County FFA Attends the 98th National FFA Convention & Expo
Tri-County FFA members recently traveled to Indianapolis for the 98th National FFA Convention & Expo! The week was filled with learning, exploration, and inspiration as students connected with agricultural leaders, colleges, and career opportunities from across the country.
The trip began with a tour of Kuhn North America in Brodhead, Wisconsin, where members learned about the innovation and precision behind agricultural equipment manufacturing, from start to finish, and watched cutting-edge robotic welders in action. From there, they stopped at Chicago Import Quarantine at O’Hare International Airport to see how high-value horses are transported internationally through a USDA-approved facility
In Indianapolis, members dove right into the Career Expo, where over 300 booths showcased colleges, technical schools, agribusinesses, and agricultural career paths of all kinds. From hands-on displays in animal science and agronomy to conversations with industry professionals, the experience opened doors to countless possibilities. At Lucas Oil Stadium, over 70,000 FFA members, guests, teachers and supporters gathered for the General Sessions, where keynote speakers; including A’ric Jackson, delivered powerful messages about leadership, resilience, and finding one’s purpose.
The week also included a visit to the Exotic Feline Rescue Center in Center Point, Indiana, home to over 100 rescued big cats, and a stop at Umbarger Show Feeds in Franklin, where members toured a family-owned feed company and saw impressive robotic equipment in use. Between sessions, members attended leadership workshops on resume-building and interview skills, watched the National Talent Competition, explored the FFA Mall, and even capped one evening with a Pacers basketball game, where they got to shoot hoops on the court!
A heartfelt thank you goes out to the TC FFA Alumni for sponsoring a large portion of the trip; to the TC staff for supporting our students’ participation; to Theresa, our wonderful bus driver, for keeping everyone safe; and to the parents who made this opportunity possible.
Most of all, we’re proud of our eight outstanding FFA members for representing Tri-County with enthusiasm, respect, and pride throughout an incredible week! If you see one of these students, be sure to ask them about their experiences at the National FFA Convention - they’ll have plenty to share! Also checkout our facebook page for more pictures!
