Mole Day honors Avogadro's Number (6.02 x 10²³) and encourages interest in chemistry. Mrs. Knobloch's AP Chem classes celebrate the day each year.

Do you remember?
When Triad High School opened in 1999, there were plans for expansion of one classroom wing as well as the addition of an auditorium. Unfortunately those plans had to be cut short. The solution of a cafetorium has served us over the years, but now the space is just too small.
Today, our students and community need:
· An auditorium that properly showcases our talented fine and performing arts students
· Additional space for Career and Technical Education (CTE) and science labs
· A large space to gather for events like parent orientation and honors night
· A dedicated space for lunch

Aging Infrastructure
Triad Middle School opened in 1959 (65 years ago) as Triad High School. The aging infrastructure does not hold up to today’s educational standards and student needs.
The 945 students at TMS are forced to navigate cramped hallways during passing periods, which could pose a safety risk in the event of an emergency requiring a quick evacuation.
Additionally, the cafeteria is too small to accommodate students in fewer than five lunch periods, which begin as early as 10:20 a.m. and end at 1:30 p.m.
