The school board will be having a special meeting on Tuesday, September 22nd at 2 p.m. The meeting will be held by teleconference (Zoom). Anyone can call into the meeting to listen or can also attend in-person to listen in the McAreavey Board Room. (I don’t believe any board members will be attending “in-person.”) The purpose of the meeting is for two items that were on the September 14th agenda - Consider easement for Dianne Street and 9. Consider approval for surcharging Early Learning Center footprint. Neither of these items received any public comment on the 14th, but if any individual(s) wish to speak to either of the agenda items, please contact me so we can unmute your line at the appropriate time (if calling into the meeting). Or, if attending in person you can speak at that time as well. The agenda for the special meeting and call-in instructions can be viewed from the school website at: https://www.tri-valley.k12.sd.us/browse/156880

Good Afternoon,
This message is to keep our students, parents, and fans informed of our football game situation for next week.
Our Tri-Valley varsity football team was scheduled to play Pine Ridge next week, September 4th. Pine Ridge has decided not to play varsity football this year. Since we received that information, we have been working to schedule another game for our football team. We have pursued teams from both the local area and as far away as Hot Springs. So far, we have been unsuccessful in finding any teams that have an open date for next week that are willing and/or able to play.
If another (11-man) team should have to cancel their game for next week, we will do what we can to schedule their opponent. But, as of right now there is no game for the Mustangs football team on September 4th.
Have a great weekend.
Good Afternoon,
1. We will be accepting player passes #1 through #10 this week for Tri-Valley high school activities. A reminder that only those individuals that have a player pass as well as current Tri-Valley high school students will be allowed into high school activities. Tickets/activity passes will still need to be used in conjunction with the player pass. (There is still a cost to get into the activities.)
2. It is our intent to have all Tri-Valley varsity volleyball and varsity football games webcast through the National Federation of High Schools (NFHS) this fall. Please visit the NFHS site @ www.nfhsnetwork.com Once you arrive at the NFHS website, create a username/password to be used when you log in to watch games. After creating an account, search Tri-Valley School, Colton, SD for events that will be broadcast throughout the year. There are no charges associated with creating an account or watching Tri-Valley athletics online this year.
3. A reminder that school pictures are Wednesday, August 26th.
Respectfully,
Dr. Mike Lodmel, Superintendent

A recording of the board meeting held Monday night has been posted to the Tri-Valley Facebook page. Some of the audio is difficult to hear, as our volunteer video recorder is still working out some of the kinks.
Masks will be provided this fall. Through a generous donation from the Tri-Valley Booster Club together with contributions from the Tri-Valley PTO and School administration, cloth masks will be provided for every student, staff, and employee of the Tri-Valley School District at no cost. In addition, Rosenbauer South Dakota is donating ear savers for use with the masks. Thank you to the Booster Club and their members whose financial support makes this possible; and thank you to Rosenbauer South Dakota, a current business Booster Club member, for their generous donations to our Tri-Valley Community. For more information on how you can become a Booster Club member, visit the School website or Booster Club Facebook page today.
