There will be a sign up sheet for HS students on the HS office window and they need to be signed up in order to attend the game. With this decision, we are limiting attendance to 1 parent per player for freshmen thru juniors. This will not apply to senior parents as this is one of the last girls home game of this season.

Laila Beck is the Upperclassmen Student of the Month for February. She is the daughter of Jason and Alicia and she has a sister, Kaylee. Laila is involved in FFA, Student Council, and NHS here at Triopia.
Mrs. Dober nominated Laila and noted, “Laila has been working extra hard these past couple of weeks and her hard work is paying off with great understanding on assignments. She was out for a little bit for her knee and has come back strong ready to learn. Go Laila!”
Laila plans to attend any college/university that has a good ag program. She wants to major in biochemistry or forensic science. In addition to college, she has another goal for life after high school which is to have a family and own a farm with horses and cattle. Some of Laila’s favorite things are homegrown steak, horses (only because a calf busted her leg), the TV show Yellowstone, the movie Avatar, and her favorite holiday is Christmas. She enjoys riding horses, showing cows, fishing and drawing. Congratulations, Laila Beck!
Maggie Foster is the Underclassmen Student of the Month for February. She is the daughter of John and Jamie Foster. Maggie has a dog named Ranger and a cat named Gypsy. Maggie is involved in scholastic bowl, poms, and softball here at Triopia.
Maggie was nominated by Mrs. Burrus who had this to say, “Maggie comes to class willing and ready to learn. She is very responsible about contacting the teachers when she knows that she will be missing school as well as getting all of her assignments completed upon returning. This is a rare quality and is much appreciated.”
Maggie says that she wants to go to Maryville University and become a Registered Nurse or an Optometrist. Some other goals Maggie has for life after high school is travel to Europe to see Greece and also to see Anne Frank’s house. Maggie’s favorite class is accounting with Mrs. Smith as she does a great job explaining things so they are very easy to understand. Some of Maggie’s favorite things are horses, tuna casserole, the TV show criminal minds, the movie Spirit - Stallion of the Cimarron and her favorite holiday is Christmas. She also enjoys reading and writing stories. Maggie’s least favorite things are carrots and disorganized items. Congratulations Maggie Foster!
The February Junior High Student of the Month is Lillie Stucker (7th grade). She is the daughter of Jason and Renee Stucker and has a sister named Makenzie.
Lillie was nominated by Mrs. Morrow who had this to say, “Lillie is such a pleasure to have in class. It is important to her to do well, and it shows. The main reason I nominated Lillie is because of her thoughtfulness and willingness to help others. She is the first to jump in to help a classmate if they're having trouble. The world would be a better place if it were full of people like Lillie!”
Lillie wants to attend the University of Tennessee and wants to become a Prosthetic Specialist. Lillie's favorite classes here at Triopia are her classes with Mrs. Morrow because “she is a great teacher, very nice, and I enjoy the partner work.” Lillie really likes goldfish crackers, turtles, the TV show Full House, and the movie “The Little Turtle.” Her favorite thing to do is drive the golf cart and she enjoys camping and swimming. Lillie has a few things she does not like as well. She really does not like judgmental people and the COLD. Congratulations Lillie Stucker!
