Through a contract the Greattinger-Terril School Board has with the marketing firm BonFire, one of the many things we have been doing is working with them to develop vinyls that capture our continuous drive to be the best Titan Nation possible. These will go on the front doors and windows of our Elementary building as well as our MS/HS building. Today, BonFire installed some of the ones for Terril Elementary. They include front doors and office windows and.... They. Look. Incredible! Stay tuned for further installments at the Elementary as well as at the MS/HS. Titan Nation! Titan Proud!

Congratulations, Titan Girls Softball and Boys Baseball Team on their season opening wins!!! It is great to have summer sports back!! #TITANNATION


The Operation Toothpick team successfully solved the problem posed by Safco by creating a relationship with EPS. Waste shipping timbers from Safco are placed in this fixture created by EPS for pick up. Allowing EPS to re-purpose the timbers, creates a combined cost savings of $7000. It helps Safco reduce the waste sent to the landfill and provides EPS with a superior product to what they were previously using.

When the court is eventually removed in the distant future, those who find the board will know the class of 2020!
