Annual Food Drive
In lieu of exchanging presents with classmates and giving gifts to teachers this holiday season, the Tri-County Staff is holding a food drive.   We do this annually to help students learn about the importance of giving to those in need.


The food will be given to the Strandquist and Lake Bronson Food Pantries.  

You may send non-perishable food items or money with your kids to their classroom.  We will be collecting food from December 12th-16th.  

You can also bring your donations the night of conferences on December 15.  There will be a table set up.

Thank you so much for giving to this worthy cause!  
Tri-County Elementary Staff

Special Note: The high school student council is participating in the food drive this year by asking students to bring in certain food items each day.  In the elementary, students can bring in whatever they want on any of the days!
