Tenino Students and Families,
At approximately 12:06pm today, the Tenino Police Department contacted Superintendent Endicott and advised that all schools enter lockdown immediately. The entire district was placed into lockdown pending further direction from Tenino Police.
We later learned that a pursuit coming from Lewis County was headed towards Tenino with shots fired. The entire district remained in lockdown until 12:18pm, when Tenino Police informed us that it was safe to lift the lockdown as the pursuit had ended just outside of town and the suspects had been apprehended.
As always, we are grateful for the quick response of our Tenino Police Department, and for the quick response of all staff to ensure that our students were safe.

The South Thurston County Historical Society needs our help!
The Tenino Depot Museum houses a time capsule that is opened every 20 years. It started in 1982 and has been opened twice, once in 2002 and most recently over the summer at the Tenino Railroad Day. The capsule will be resealed for another 20 years soon and we would love your help!!
Highlights from past capsules:
The 1982 capsule contained many letters from school kids and community members to their future selves.
Would your student(s) like to write a letter? Adults are welcome to write letters too! Yearbooks, class pictures, school newsletters, school shirts, buttons, Literary magazines, ribbons, graduation programs and candid photographs have all been in past capsules. Do you have any of these items or extra fanwear? Retired uniforms? Programs?
Newspaper articles, flyers, interesting mementos from recent events. There were many 9/11 articles in the 2002 capsule. What recent events should be remembered?
Small Toys!! Both past capsules have had Rubik's cubes. A small ET toy was in the 1982 capsule. A beaver was in the 2002 capsule. Toys are fun to put on the display in the museum. And they can be as simple as Happy Meal
Toys.
There was even a twinkie in the 2002 capsule... and no. It was not moldy :)
It's that time of year again! Tenino based Choose Love presents Adopt-A-Child! Thank you for all that you do for our students and community!
The mighty Lady Bugs played at Capital Soccer fields on Saturday. The team is made up of 5th and 6th graders for Tenino and other nearby schools. The girls played great and won! Go T9O!
