Tulare City School District opens Outdoor Educational Complex
On Tuesday, Tulare City School District (TCSD) celebrated the grand opening of its Outdoor Educational Complex. The nearly 27-acre facility is an exciting new hub for student athletics and community activities.
This new facility will provide dedicated space for sports programs, ensuring sustainability and reducing wear on individual school sites. It will serve as the new home for after-school sports programs for 4th–8th grade students through ELOP, as well as practices and games previously held across multiple campuses.
The complex includes natural grass fields, field lighting for evening events, restrooms, and dedicated parking. It is also gated with monitored safety features.
This facility will help TCSD continue providing modern and enriched spaces for students to grow as athletes and leaders, encouraging physical activity and teamwork.
