Proud Home of the Knights


Students in class

Welcome to Tenino Middle School, home of the Knights. We are a 6th-8th grade school located in Tenino, Washington, a 102-year-old historic town. Our school has great community support. Parent  volunteers have helped this school tremendously. We firmly believe that students excel when they know we care about them. Be assured that our teachers and staff care deeply about giving your child the best possible education.

We’re glad you came to visit Tenino Middle School’s online home. We hope you’ll continue to stay familiar with our school. You’ll find that we update calendar dates and news items regularly for your convenience. We have also made the  Student Handbook available for you to download. We welcome all calls for additional questions you may have!


Principal's Message

Dear Parents/Guardians-

Thank you for another wonderful month with your students. Our students continue to impress us with their hard work and wonderful behavior. This is a tribute to the homes you are providing for our students.

I wanted to also take time to talk about how special it is to have Hal Williams as our Head Boy’s Basketball coach this season. Hal has now coached in his 6th decade in Tenino, and watching him work with our students is a true treat. He still has the command and respect from all the students, while at the same time teaching them the fundamentals of basketball. Our school was fortunate to have him interested in our position.

I also wanted to recognize some of the special field trips students were able to attend at the end of the most recent semester. Mr. Elam and Ms. Price were able to takes the students to Olympia to climb a indoor rock wall as part of their Outdoor Adventures class. Students had a great time and almost everyone gave the climbing, and repelling a shot.

Ms. DePuy took a group of students up to the Boeing Flight Museum to attend a mock flight simulator as a part of her Rockets class. Students got to experience being a part of a NASA flight. This was a wonderful culminating activity for these students.

As always, please contact us at 264-3600 with any questions, comments, or concerns.

Sincerely,

 

Rich Staley, Principal
