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!
Auditions for the Spring Musical are 1/3 and 1/4.
The district's phone service has been restored. Thank you for your patience.

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!
It is official. Have a wonderful winter break and a special holiday season. Students and teachers return on Monday, January 3, 2022! #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!
Tipp City Schools completed its safety drill that took place at Tippecanoe Middle School. The drill included the release of chemical fumes in the building. Students and staff evacuated the building. Police, fire, and rescue responded to the drill. Safety is a top priority for our students, staff, and community. Practicing scenarios, such as this, is an important step in ensuring they can react quickly and appropriately in an actual emergency.
At this time, Tipp City Schools is conducting an emergency safety drill as part of our preparedness plan. Local police, fire, and other emergency crews are responding to the incident. The district will provide updates when available. Thank you.
Today Miami County Animal Shelter in Troy presented Tippecanoe Middle School 8th grader Ava Hanrahan with a Certificate of Appreciation for her successful pet supply drive. Because of her leadership, strong organization skills, and the generosity of our community, she collected more than 700 items!! (Her goal was 50 donations.) On behalf of the shelter and commissioners, shelter manager Rob Craft expressed gratitude for Ava's community service project!
WDTN-TV interviewed THS freshman Carson Hughes and his mom(a pastor) to learn about their toy drive for the children of the tornado that leveled the city of Mayfield, Kentucky-their former hometown. New toys can be dropped off at our schools. Ends Thursday. #WEareTIPP
A Tipp City family with students enrolled in our district previously lived in Mayfield, Kentucky, one of the hardest hit areas by the tornado over the weekend. They are collecting toys for families and plan to drive to Mayfield this weekend to deliver the gifts. Broadway, LT Ball, Tippecanoe Middle School and Tippecanoe High School are collecting new toys if you would like to donate. This is a quick turn around as all items need to be at one of the schools by the end of school on Thursday, December 16th. #WEareTIPP

Today we share a story of kindness and generosity! Tippecanoe Middle School 8th grader Ava Hanrahan had an idea for a community service project and after speaking with her principal Diane Voress this is what happened! Ava asked her classmates and TMS staff to donate items for the Miami County Animal Shelter in Troy. She hoped to get about fifty items but far exceeded her expectations! Boxes she and her mother decorated are overflowing with toys, treats, food, blankets, and more. Donations are still being added. The family intends to load the donations after school on Friday. #WEareTIPP
