TRI-VILLAGE LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICT

What TRI-VILLAGE LOCAL SCHOOL DISTRICT does

Tri-Village Local School District is a public K-12 school district governed by an elected Board of Education under Ohio law and headquartered at 315 South Main Street, New Madison, Ohio (Darke County). The district operates two schools—Tri-Village Elementary School (preschool through grade 6) and Tri-Village Junior/Senior High School (grades 7-12)—along with the Wee Patriot Preschool, delivering a unified K-12 public education experience to students and families within its assigned catchment area. Functional services span academic instruction, Title I supplemental reading support, athletics (the Patriots), a school cafeteria participating in the Summer Food Service Program and free/reduced lunch, bus transportation for students living more than one mile from school, special education, music, and extracurricular programs. The district has earned a five-star rating from the Ohio Department of Education on the 2025-2026 School Report Cards and was ranked among U.S. News & World Report's 2024 Best Elementary and Junior High Schools out of 79,000+ public schools nationwide. All teachers meet the federal Highly Qualified Teacher (HQT) definition.

The district is funded primarily through Ohio state aid, local property taxes, and federal grants (including Title I), with auxiliary fee-based revenue streams from Wee Patriot Preschool tuition, cafeteria meals, student athletic passes, and the newly launched Patriots sideline store. Its go-to-market is geographic: enrollment is open to all in-district students, with no outbound sales motion. Technology infrastructure includes a 1:1 Chromebook program, the eSchoolView content platform, and a vendor stack for communications (OneCall Now, ParentSquare, Facebook, Twitter), grade reporting (Progress Book/MetaSolutions), enrollment (FinalForms), payments (LINQ Connect, TITAN), and ticketing/merchandise (Hometown Ticketing, B SN Sports). The district is led by Superintendent Josh Sagester with Treasurer Kimberly Chowning, and operates within a small-scale, rural Ohio footprint with a lean administrative core.

Comparable as a K-12 education operator with similar instructional and operational scope, though structured as a private management entity rather than a public district.
