Together We Succeed Award Recipients for December
At the December meeting of the TCISD Board of Trustees, we were proud to recognize this month’s Together We Succeed award recipients. These awards, sponsored by the TCISD Foundation for the Future, honor students, staff and community partners who embody the qualities and characteristics that reflect TCISD’s vision of unity and success.
Tori Elizondo
Texas City High School student-athlete Tori Elizondo was honored for her outstanding compassion and leadership.
While assisting with the Turkey Trot at Kohfeldt Elementary, Tori helped a young student who was heartbroken after not winning the race. Using skills learned through the Expect Success program, she was able to calm and encourage him so he could return to the fun.
Her kindness and maturity made a meaningful difference.
Coach Shone Evans and Coach Wade Oliphant
TCHS and LMHS athletic coordinators and head football coaches Shone Evans and Wade Oliphant were recognized for their unwavering support of our student-athletes.
They are always available for students and often go above and beyond by providing meals, clothing and anything else that may be needed. Their care continues long after graduation as they stay connected and ensure students have the support to succeed in life.

The Gathering Church
The Gathering Church was celebrated for faithfully supporting Heights Elementary students.
The church’s volunteers make every birthday special by delivering a cupcake, a juice box and a book to each child.
Their generosity extends throughout the year with Thanksgiving meals for families in need and summer lunches for students who require support among many other services.
​ Their kindness brings joy to the Heights community.
We are grateful for these shining examples of what it means to live out TCISD’s vision. Together we truly succeed.
