Student Success and Slipper Night -
Parents we need your help. If you believe your child would qualify for Free or Reduced Meals at school, please contact the office and fill out the proper paperwork necessary to qualify for this service.
Families that do not qualify for Free/Reduced meals please keep an eye on your child’s breakfast/lunch account. We have several families that have overdue balances on their child’s accounts. It would be wonderful if we could get these cleared up as soon as possible. If you have any questions, please contact Mrs. Bradley at 360-264-3821 or Mrs. Stephens at 360-264-3416. Thank you so much for your prompt attention to this. ~Mr. Williams

Tenino Students and Families,
At approximately 12:06pm today, the Tenino Police Department contacted Superintendent Endicott and advised that all schools enter lockdown immediately. The entire district was placed into lockdown pending further direction from Tenino Police.
We later learned that a pursuit coming from Lewis County was headed towards Tenino with shots fired. The entire district remained in lockdown until 12:18pm, when Tenino Police informed us that it was safe to lift the lockdown as the pursuit had ended just outside of town and the suspects had been apprehended.
As always, we are grateful for the quick response of our Tenino Police Department, and for the quick response of all staff to ensure that our students were safe.
Thank you to our Veterans. We appreciate all you have done for our country and the world. “This nation will remain the land of the free only so long as it is the home of the brave.”
A shout out to our wonderful Parkside parents. The support you show your child will benefit them for life. Thank you for helping them get off on the right foot. This year we had 92% of our families attend Parent/Teacher conferences. THANK YOU! We know we will connect with the other 8% within the next 2 weeks as our goal is to meet with ALL our students families so we can create that plan of support. When a student has a team helping them become successful, great things happen. Thanks again for your teamwork with the Parkside Staff in helping our students "Learn and Grow, at Parkside Elementary School in Tenino!"
Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd Grade Girls interested in learning a little about basketball here is your chance. Please disregard earlier post as it had the wrong dates on it.
