This is one of the many things we love about a small town. Our THS students took pictures our Kindergarten students drew several months ago and turned them into Stuffies. Today was the day our Kindergarten students got to see what they helped design. THANK YOU Tenino High School students for being such awesome kids. You made our kids feel very special today! It was also cool to see so many of our former Penguins return as THS Students. You make us all at PES - Parkside Proud!

What is chronic absenteeism?
Chronic absenteeism means missing too much school—for any reason—excused or unexcused. Experts and a growing number of states define chronic absenteeism as missing 10% (or around 18 days) during a school year.
Thank you Parkside Families for helping those in need during the holiday season. We reached out goal of 1,000 food items for our local food bank. This year Parkside brought in 1,183 items. THANK YOU!!
