The Tippecanoe Valley Athletic Conference was an IHSAA-sanctioned small-school conference in Northern Indiana. It was formed by seven schools located in Fulton and Pulaski counties in 1955,[1] and added three schools from Starke County its second year. However, by 1967 the league was down to four schools due to consolidation, and would close up shop after that season as three of those remaining schools were consolidated themselves.
