Dear Parents, We practiced our safety drills at school today. I would encourage you to talk to your student(s) about this topic. Research has proven that people who respond the best during a crisis situation are the people who are the most mentally prepared for the crisis. We hope and pray we never have a situation but in the chance that we might, we want to make sure we are adequately prepared for the situation. We hope you have a wonderful weekend! Sincerely, Mr. Thompson

Student drop off procedures: You will need to use the 4-way stop and enter the second driveway on your right. We are asking that you help your student or students get organized before you make your way to school so that all you have to do is pull into the unloading zone and allow your student to exit your vehicle. Please pull all the way forward to the handicap unloading ramp to drop your student off quickly and wait for the line to move towards the exit. Please do not try to pass the cars in front of you. We have had multiple accidents over the years due to being impatient and pulling around the car in front of you. Thank you for helping us keep our car rider efficient and safe!

Student pick up procedures: You will need to use the 4-way stop and enter the second driveway on your right. We will be having our car rider line for two lines to increase capacity inside of our lot to help keep cars from blocking in our buses and holding up our bus routes. When it is your turn to exit the dual lanes please alternate left to right to enter the line to pick up your student. Once you are in the single pick up line by the curb please pull forward as much as possible. Please be careful as a car may be passing you on the left if your student is not ready and waiting on you at the end of the day. Please be courteous and patient with all involved as we are trying to make our car rider line more efficient for everyone.

Triton Central Middle School will host our Meet the Teacher Night on Tuesday, August 1st from 5:00pm - 7:00pm. This event will be an open house format so please come when it is most convenient for your family!

Triton Central Middle School will be changing the start and end times for school for the 2023-2024 school year. Triton Central Middle School will start classes at 7:35am and will end the school day at 2:50pm. You should not see any changes to bus pickup and drop off times as we have made adjustments here on campus to allow for these changes. If you are a car rider please make the necessary adjustments for your arrival and departure plans.
