Due to a sudden, significant increase in student and staff absences, Tipp City Schools will be implementing remote learning as defined in our Continuity of Learning Plan that is posted on the district website. The district will implement remote learning from Thursday, January 13th through Friday, January 21st. The district will still observe the early release schedule on Friday, January 14th, and the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday on Monday, January 17th.
During this time, all extra-curricular activities, including athletic practices and games, are canceled (from January 13th - Monday, January 17th). On Monday (1/17), we will assess the potential for practices to begin on Tuesday, January 18th.
We apologize for any inconvenience or hardship this decision places on families. If you have any questions, please contact your child's principal.
Nevin Coppock students in the class of Sandy Berning are so proud of their snowflakes created out of pattern blocks! Many of the first graders are hoping for snow on Friday! #WEareTIPP

Congratulations to Tippecanoe High School student Grace Raiff, the most recent Red Devil of the Week!

"I opened up my classroom door for the first time in 2022 to a new Smartboard!" LT Ball Intermediate teacher Kem Fischer says, "The students and I are thrilled with the new board. The color, clarity, touchscreen, and display for student engagement are amazing. Best present ever!! Six boards were installed in LT Ball classrooms over the break. LTPA contributed to this project using donations from last year's successful Read-A-Thon.
The district has 14 new hands-free bottle filling stations thanks to Monroe Township Board of Trustees! The board appropriated nearly $30,000 in CARES Act Funds for Tipp City Schools to purchase the touchless water dispensers. #WEareTIPP #TogetherweareExtraordinary
The Tippecanoe High School wrestling team competed at the 56 team GMVWA Holiday Tournament. Tippecanoe placed 16th in their division with freshman Alex Shellhammer (175) placing 8th. He is the first freshman in Tippecanoe history to place at the tournament. Great Job! #WEareTIPP
Thank you to the Tipp City United Methodist Church for making a vision come to reality. The church recently collaborated with several others in our community to improve safety for our students who are traversing on and off the field at City Park. In collaboration with the City of Tipp City - Government, Tipp City Schools, Tipp Pride, and Tipp City Music Boosters , a concrete pad was poured to join sidewalks to the turf field. This makes it safer for the students and allows others (especially those requiring wheelchairs) to enter the field with confidence. Thank you to Dan Glover, Pastor at TCUMC; Greg Moehl, Family Ministry Pastor at TCUMC; Mike Chaney, Tippecanoe Music Boosters President and church member; Keith Lavy, Classic Concrete and church member; Tony Hunt, City of Tipp City. This is shining example of our community spirit!

The phone lines for Tipp City Schools are not working. The district cannot place or receive outside calls. Frontier is working to restore service.
Approximately 135 guests enjoyed breakfast with Santa thanks to the Tippecanoe High School Business Professionals of American! Children received an early gift from Santa, heard carols sung by the THS choir, and worked on crafts. They even had the opportunity to write and hand deliver letters to Santa!

Congratulations to December's Students of the Month. The LT Ball honorees know how to be responsible, be respectful, and have integrity. And, they also love to get a little silly for a photo. (It was pajama day on the day of the celebration.) #WEareTIPP
Today Tippecanoe High School homebuilding teacher James Kitchen and two of his students presented the Tipp City Police Department and Tipp City Fire Department with a special holiday gift. Students enrolled in the THS Homebuilding Class handcrafted wooden flags made with 90-year-old reclaimed wood. Tenth grader Emma Hanrahan and her brother 12th grader Collin thanked the police officers and firefighters for their dedication, service, and commitment to the safety of our community. Part of Mr. Kitchen's mission is to encourage his students to always give back. We think he succeeded!
