Good morning! The software company that we use for automated phone calls is experiencing delays in their call system today. As you know, we use many different methods of communication in the event of school delays and closures. It appears that text messaging, app notifications, and social media worked properly. Unfortunately, it appears that phone calls have not yet gone out to many of our Titan families. These calls are still showing "pending" and may come to you later this morning. We apologize for any confusion this may cause. Thank you.
Due to inclement weather and poor road conditions, the South Henry School Corporation will be closed to in-person classes on Friday, January 19th, 2024. Today will be a synchronous eLearning Day. Students should plan to participate in eLearning as directed by your child’s school and teacher. Go Titans!
Calling all TES Titan wrestlers! Tomorrow is the last day of sign-ups. Make sure to stop by! 💪
The South Henry School Corporation will operate on a two hour delay tomorrow, Wednesday, January 17th, 2024. Extreme cold temperatures create challenges for heating systems and buses. If we experience challenges with these systems or if buses will not start properly, please know that this delay could change to a school closure (synchronous eLearning Day). We thank you for your grace and understanding. Go Titans!

We are immensely grateful for Bobbi Plummer and our Henry County leadership for listening to the concerns created by the St. Rd. 103 closure for our families coming to us from the north and west. They have been quick to act, installing flashing signs at the intersection 500s and 25w. They have also completed a traffic study in this area as well.
With today's blast of snowy weather, we are thankful for those looking out for the safety of the South Henry family and we are reminded of the importance of alert and careful driving. Please continue to have conversations with our young drivers about driving slowly, putting cell phones away, and being attentive to the road and its conditions. We love our Titans and want to keep them safe!
Go Titans!

TES is full of technology rockstars! 📚 Mrs. Hamm went LIVE to all of Tri Elementary to read a story to the students. ❄️ It was a great opportunity for students to show their problem solving skills and model digital citizenship. This was also great practice to show expectations to students on how to operate a Google Meet in case of a Synchronous learning day. Way to go, Titans!
🌟 We are spotlighting a classroom that was working extremely hard today! Here is Mrs. Nolley's Classroom working in partners on their fluency. Students were reading out loud to each other and helping correct mistakes if they made any. All students were respectful, responsible, and ready to learn! Way to go, Mrs. Nolley's class! 👏🏻

As we wind down the year 2023, we want to shout out a word of congratulations to our December Titans of the Month!

Tri Elementary will be hosting our first annual school-wide spelling bee on January 19th! Classroom bees were held in grades 3, 4, and 5 at the end of the semester to determine those who will compete at the school-wide bee. Congratulations to those students pictured who qualified for the school-wide bee as classroom champions or runner-up contestants!
We LOVE celebrating good news at Tri Elementary! Each day, teachers and staff may recognize students for going above and beyond in the classroom and surrounding settings. When students are nominated, they receive a special certificate, name call on the announcements, bracelet, and prize! The best part is when students get to share the good news by making a special phone call with Mrs. Hamm to his or her parents/family member of choice!
Congrats to these students who were nominated, recognized, and celebrated in the month of December!
📣 Amazing report from Mrs. Miller!
"Our gingerbread man has been up to some amazing adventures! He’s made it to almost all 50 states and 3 different countries! Today, we received a plush gingerbread man from a kind 9 year old girl in our community!"
Thank you to our community donator who made this happen, and also to our volunteers who have been mailing our kindergarten gingerbread man! They have absolutely loved this! 🎄
Thank you to all who were able to join Mrs. Stevens during a busy time! Please look forward to more family fun from Mrs. Stevens in 2024!
We had 2 fantastic field trips happening today at TES! Our 3rd grade students went to the Ball State Planetarium, and our 5th grade students went to the New Castle Rose Bowl. Thank you to all of our teachers, staff, volunteers, bus drivers, and cafeteria staff for their efforts making field trips happen! Go, Titans!
