Public Announcement

TCU Montgomery Indoor Pool suspended until Phase III of the ‘Stay Safe MN’ Plan

The Tri-City United School District is saddened to report that the TCU Montgomery Indoor Pool will be closed for the month of June due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. At the recommendation of Governor Tim Walz and the MN Department of Health, it has been determined to be unsafe to the community to open the pool at this time. We will continue to monitor the pool opening under Governor Tim Walz’s ‘Stay Safe MN’ Plan to determine the possibility of opening in July.

School Closing and Severe Weather Guidelines

When severe weather is forecasted for the Tri-City United area, the Superintendent and the Transportation Manager work together to monitor the weather and road conditions from several sources. The decision to cancel or shorten the school day is started as soon as severe weather conditions become imminent. The Superintendent and Transportation Manager monitor and judge the road and visibility and weather conditions throughout the school district area. Both the Superintendent and Transportation Manager use the information each has gathered to make the safest decision for the children in the TCU School District.
