Tri-West Hendricks High School is a public high school located in Lizton, Indiana.

About

Tri-West Hendricks High School was constructed in 1975, with a junior high (Tri-West Middle School) later added in 1983 (a new junior high was completed in 2003, into which the 6-8 graders moved).[1] Tri-West was formed from the consolidation of three high schools: Pittsboro, Lizton, and North Salem. This also caused the formation of the North West Hendricks School Corporation. In Pittsboro, the original gym remains as part of the elementary school. The high school was expanded and renovated between the years of 2008 to 2010. It holds grades 9-12 from the townships of Middle, Union, and Eel River. The school mascot is the Bruin. The school colors are navy blue and vegas gold. The location of the school is rural, surrounded by mainly farmland. It isn't an ethnically diverse school, as the students are nearly all (96.5%) caucasian, respectively.[2]

Athletics

The school's sports teams compete at the Class 3A level, with the exception of the boys and girls soccer teams, which are Class A, of the Indiana High School Athletic Association. Tri-West is a member of the Sagamore Conference. The school's main rival is the Danville Warriors.

The Bruins' football team has won four state championships:

The 2012-13 Tri-West Lady Bruins softball team won the 3A state championship in 2013. In 2014, the men's soccer team made its first state championship appearance.

The Tri-West Competition Cheerleaders were the 2A Indiana High School Cheerleading Champions in 2007, 2010 and 2013.

The cheerleaders also won a 2011 Nationwide contest sponsored by HighSchoolSports.net. They won an all-expenses paid trip to cheer on the East All-Stars in the Army All-American Football game in San Antonio, Texas.

In 2010, the drumline won IPA Class AA Movement, with the show "Shipwrecked."[3]

In 2014, the Marching Blue Alliance were state champions.
