The Tiger Nation Turned Out in Force for 63rd Annual Homecoming Celebration

 

 

 

Small towns and small schools do not necessarily mean small celebrations.  Last week the Tenaha family celebrated in style with the 63rd Annual Tenaha Homecoming weekend.  And, what a weekend it was.  This year’s theme was “Storming our way to the top”, and the elementary teachers and staff and kids did not disappoint.  This year’s floats were probably the most creative and best we have seen.  Plus, there were tons of smiling happy faces on display during the parade as well.  Speaking of the parade, another big crowd and fantastic parade was the highlight of the afternoon as alumni, students, a beautiful Homecoming court, the Roarin’ Band from Tigerland, and the Tigers themselves were on display for the hundreds in attendance.

 

And while we are talking about the Roarin’ Band from Tigerland, let’s talk about their amazing contest performance and 1st Division rating early Saturday morning.  Mr. Sours and the band have worked tirelessly to produce their award winning sound.  The Homecoming day for band students began at 6:00 AM and ended around 9:00 PM.  Three different performances that included a parade march.  No better way to lift up that Tiger Pride than seeing the Tiger Band march onto the scene.  

 

We were equally proud to welcome home this year’s Grand Marshal, Master Sergeant Justin Adams.  Justin is a career Air Force Officer and former Tenaha Valedictorian.  It was awesome to see Justin lead the parade downtown in uniform and all of Tenaha are grateful for his continued service to our country.

 

Speaking of proud legacies, help me welcome the two new members to the Tenaha Hall of Honor.  Terry Bowlin has long been the catalyst for so many things we have accomplished at TISD, and no one is more deserving than her of this great honor.  Also, no alumni has set a better example for the young people of Tenaha to aspire to be in life than this year’s other inductee, Randy Jackson.  Randy is one of the DFW Metroplex’s most successful coaches and he has positively affected so many young people’s lives through his efforts.  It was great to see the pride Randy and the entire Jackson family showed in their home town.  

 

Finally, the Tigers were able to take center stage against the Grapeland Sandies.  As they have done all year, the Tigers smashed their way to their 5th shut out of the season.  This Tiger defense may be the best ever as they have only allowed four touchdowns in eight games.  On Saturday, the Tiger defense managed to score three touchdowns of their own en route to the 47-0 victory.

 

Saturday was just another example of how awesome the Tiger Nation is when we come together.  A great crowd enjoyed a day of amazing performances by Tenaha kids.  We truly do have a great thing going here at TISD.

Tenaha Seniors to be Recognized at 2016 Home Finale Friday

 

Be sure and make plans to join us at Raymond Jackson Stadium on Friday, November 4, 2016 at 6:30 PM as TISD recognizes this year’s Tenaha High School Senior class before kickoff of the last home regular season game of the year against the Timpson Bears.  We invite all Seniors and their parents to join us on the home sideline at 6:20 PM to organize and prepare to be recognized at 6:30 PM sharp.  Our brief ceremony will pay tribute to the many hours or work and commitment these seniors have made to the various extra-curricular activities in which they’ve participated, and to recognize the countless program achievements they have been instrumental in making happen during their careers.  

 

 

 

We look forward to honoring this great group of Tigers on Senior Recognition Night and wish them well as they have worked their way so close to graduation.  

 

Tigers vs. Bears at 7:00 PM.  Senior Recognition at 6:30 PM.  Friday in the Pit.
