Tumwater School District

Continuous Student Learning in a Caring, Engaging Environment

    District Home

    Welcome

    • Tumwater School District provides a safe, caring, and supportive learning environment for students.  Our academic focus is based on four questions:  What do we want each student to learn?  How will we know if each student is learning it?  How will we respond when a student is experiencing difficulty?  How will we respond if the student already knows it?

    • Snow Day Waiver Approved

      We received official notice from OSPI that our waiver request for the February 11-14 snow day closures has been approved. As a result, there will be no more ACT early release Fridays for the remainder of the 2018-19 school year. Our last day of school will be June 24th and will be half-day early release.

    • Weather Make-Up Days Update

      Our waiver application has been submitted to OSPI and we are waiting for their decision. After evaluating the hours needed to make up the lost instructional time, we found that we can recoup the time solely from ACT Fridays. In anticipation of the waiver being approved, we are cancelling ACT early release for Friday March 15th and March 22nd while we wait for a decision from OSPI. If the waiver is approved, we will then cancel the remaining ACT days that are scheduled for the 2018-19 school year.
