We welcome you to the Tenino High School website. Thanks for dropping by to see the exciting news and activities happening here at our school and in our community. We provide outstanding education in Tenino, Washington. We're located just minutes from the metro area. We encourage you to visit next time you're in the area.

We also hope you'll accept our invitation to visit this website often and stay as long as you like. We think it’s a great place to join together as a community in support of our kids. We look forward to partnering with you to lead and inspire our students.

Dear Parents/Guardians and Students:

We encourage you to stay current on your child’s grades, attendance, and student information. Our new student information system is called “Skyward” and is used by a majority of districts throughout the state. The biggest change you will see is that student grades will be immediately updated as soon as they are entered by the teacher and available for your viewing. If you have not already received your login and password information, we will send out notification as soon as it is available.

The other big change for students this year has been the move to a seven period day. As a state, we are moving to more requirements for graduates, and we wanted to be proactive in meeting that goal. Additionally, upon graduation, students are able to qualify for entry to any of our state institutions with required core class expectations. Having additional available courses makes that a very attainable goal, while still allowing them to explore their interests in electives.

Being able to work with your student is something that the faculty at Tenino High School takes pride in doing, and we take that responsibility with passion. One of our biggest goals this year is to be able to provide the best possible customer service to you, parents, and involve you in as many ways as possible. We also ask you to:

• Take an active part in asking your student what is happening in their high school.
• Visit the school and see the amazing things we are doing here on a daily basis.
• Email your student’s teachers and ask in what way you can support your child’s learning.
• Become involved.

As our children grow and become more responsible, it sometimes can be easy to lose track of their busy lives. Make it a priority to talk with them and discuss what role their education will play in their future. High school goes by very quickly, and without proper guidance, it can be a struggle for them to transition into the next stage of their life.

We are looking forward to an amazing year and all-too-soon realize the goal of graduating for nearly 100 current senior students. Don’t blink; June is right around the corner!

Sincerely,

Brad Ramey        
Principal
