WORKING TOGETHER FOR BETTER SCHOOLS We partnered with our communities to develop a zero-rate change bond proposal to improve Triad schools. Through Triad Together, hundreds of parents, Triad staff and community members joined together to assess our schools while developing a plan to improve school buildings. Based on this work, the Board of Education placed the zero-rate-change proposal on the April 1 ballot. Learn more at: tcusd2.org/2025bond

Triad Families, Good evening, Due to the forecasted weather conditions expected in the early morning and throughout the day tomorrow, as well as the potential for hazardous road and parking lot conditions from any additional snowfall, the Triad District will conduct an e-Learning Day on Friday, January 10, 2025. Please check the website later tomorrow for information about extra-curricular activities. Families should check their email or visit the Triad website for additional information regarding e-Learning schedules and expectations for students. Thank you.

Triad Families, This message is being sent to prepare families for our intent to have students attend school in-person on Wednesday, January 8th. We want to thank all of our local road crews who have worked tirelessly over the last few days treating and clearing our streets. Even so, we understand that not every street in our district is perfect. We have spoken with our transportation department, who have spent today checking bus routes in all areas of our district, and we are confident that our buses will be able to complete their routes tomorrow. Some bus stops may have snow where students usually wait, so we ask families to help supervise their children at the bus stop tomorrow and throughout this weather event to ensure they stay safe while waiting for the bus. If parents decide to drive their students to school, we will have extended drop-off times at each building. This adjustment ensures everyone will have ample time to navigate the road conditions safely. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we work to get our students safely back into school. Jason Henderson Superintendent Triad CUSD2
