Every year for the months of February, March, April, and May, each school hosts a school board meeting! Parkside kicked us off this year at our February meeting last week and we had the cutest group of Transition to Kindergarten (TTK) students that led us in the flag salute with their teacher, Mrs. Holly Johnson!
Similar to our regular board meetings, each Principal chooses a community partner to honor at the meeting. Parkside chose to recognize Gaylen and Carol Wood of South Sound Reading Foundation. The Wood's and SSRF have been supporting Tenino students for nearly 20 years and have put thousands of books into our students hands. Thank you Gaylen, Carol, and South Sound Reading Foundation for your unwavering support of Tenino students!
Next month, our meeting will be hosted by Mrs. Van De Wege and crew at Tenino Elementary!




We had a great assembly Friday. We celebrated lots of awesome readers! Keep reading Penguins! We are proud of you. Thanks to all the families that helped with the prizes for the assembly.

"Once a Penguin Always a Penguin". Former Parksider and now THS Senior, Rowdy Tafoya and his family have just made our Dr. Seuss Celebration even cooler! They have donated more stuffed animals, books, Pencils and erasers to the celebration. When his dad dropped them off this morning he mentioned that his kids had great memories from their time here many years ago and that his family likes to give back. Thank you TAFOYA Family for always supporting Tenino's kids. We wish Rowdy all the best this weekend at the State Wrestling Championships in Tacoma! Parksider's keep READING!


Why school attendance matters
Regular attendance at school does more than help your child learn. It also boosts their development and overall health. That's why the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) encourages families to:
• reduce unnecessary absences
• learn about attendance policies where you live
• prioritize getting kids to school on time, every day

Due to snow last week, Timberland Regional Library has rescheduled this event.


Reminder: No School - Happy Presidents Day!
