Tenino School District Our city is rich in history, with the first settler to arrive in 1849. We’re a close-knit community that supports quality education.

Tenino, Washington, population 1,900, is a bedroom community located 26 minutes south of Olympia and about an hour and a half west of Mount Rainier National Park. Our rural District consists of two elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The faculty and staff at all of our school sites are excellent motivators, who encourage and educate their students with enthusiasm. We have h

📢UPDATE YOUR SKYWARD FAMILY ACCESS APP

Over the summer, Skyward underwent a large update which has impacted accessibility to the mobile app.

The update includes various security changes. You’ll know you need to update the mobile app if you receive an error message that says “Could not find username/password combination” on the Family Access sign-in screen. To resolve, go to the App Store on your phone then run updates. If you’ve never updated the mobile app on your phone you may need to delete then reinstall the mobile app on your phone.

*Families using the web-version of Skyward Family Access on a laptop or desktop are not impacted.

Follow the step-by-step directions below!

1️⃣ Update the Skyward app
2️⃣ Edit and delete the TSD "Organization" and then re-add it by searching for Tenino School District.
3️⃣ Reset your password (if needed).
4️⃣ Get back into your account quickly

Keeping your Skyward account current ensures you'll have access to student information and be ready to connect with your school before classes begin.

✨Retiree Spotlight -- Ginger Dafoe✨

Mrs. Dafoe started at Parkside Elementary School in the Preschool in 1992 where she stayed for 4 years. She took a year off and returned in 1998. During her 33 years, she has worked with students ranging from preschool through 2nd grade and has loved being a part of the education team!

Mrs. Dafoe will miss the excitement of the children as they come through the doors each morning! She will also miss the nonstop craziness of each day (both good and not so good). Lastly, she will miss the Parkside family!

She’s looking forward to traveling with her husband, spending time with her family and really just doing anything her heart desires! 💃🦋🫶
