Dear Tenino School District Families,

For us to continue to improve as a school district and as a school, it is important for us to understand stakeholder perceptions about the job we are doing in providing a quality education for all our children. We are seeking information through a 10-15 minute survey that is available now through Friday, April 3, 2026

To access the survey, visit:

https://ceeffectiveness.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0ilkh9P1QDyvc2y

- Choose your language preference on the opening page of the survey.
- Select your child’s school. If you have children in multiple schools, complete one survey per child.
- Complete the survey and click submit.
- We value your input as we strive to continue to improve. Thank you for your feedback.

Sincerely,

Clint Endicott
Superintendent

Celebrating the ❤️ of our Schools!

Behind every successful student and every smooth-running school is a team of Education Support Professionals (ESPs).

From our paraeducators and custodians to the office staff, maintenance/grounds crew, food service workers, tech team, and health services—they handle the logistics and the "little things" that aren't actually little at all.

THANK YOU for everything you do to keep our schools running smoothly and our students supported!✨

February is Love the Bus Month, and we’re taking a moment to celebrate the incredible people who make the journey to and from school safe, fun, and possible every single day.
From the early morning pre-trip inspections to the final "see you tomorrow" at the last stop, our bus drivers are the unsung heroes of the school day. They are the first friendly faces our students see in the morning and the ones who ensure a safe ride home.

How can you participate?

💛 Say Thank You: A simple wave or a "have a great day" goes a long way.
💛 Write a Note: Have your student draw a picture or write a thank-you card for their driver.
💛 Safety First: Remind your kids about bus safety to make the driver's job a little easier.

Let’s give a huge shout-out to the wheels that keep our community moving. We love our First Student bus drivers! 🚌✨
