This is the bulletin board under construction at Tippecanoe Middle School. Math teacher Nancy Murray asked students and staff to trace their hand and cut it out for the bulletin board. It is designed to show support for and represent the innocent people being affected by Russia's invasion of Ukraine. #WEareTIPP
Congratulations to Tippecanoe High School junior Heather Diehl for earning her Gold Award! This is the highest award a Girl Scout can earn. Her project, TIPP CITY JUNIOR THEATRE SOCIETY, provided performing arts opportunities for middle school students in our community. Heather created weekly online Zoom classes to teach theatre skills such as pantomime, improv, comedic acting, and voice acting. She then went on to host a week-long workshop where the students would gather to use the skills they learned to write, cast, and perform their own mini plays. #WEareTIPP

Congratulations to the Tippecanoe Indoor Percussion Ensemble for its 2nd place finish in its class. The ensemble earned a score of 68.2 at its recent competition. That's the highest first show score the group has ever had. Sunday the ensemble enjoyed similar success. Assistant Band Director Stephen Monath shared his highlight of the weekend. "On the way up to and the way back from the competition, we stopped at a truck stop in Ashland. On Sunday when we were there, the manager came over to me and said, 'I hear you're in charge of this group of kids. I said, yes what did they do?'"
Her response: "Nothing. They’re incredible. They’re polite, courteous, and well behaved. You must have had a great weekend. In the past I have called schools and told them not to come back. I was here yesterday when you stopped, and you can come back any time." #WEareTIPP #TogetherweareExtraordinary
