Our History

The History of Tumwater School District
book cover

The Tumwater School District History Committee conducted research and interviews for many years to document the District’s evolution from the early settlement days to the present.  This work led to the 2008 publication of A Rich Heritage-Tumwater Area Schools Since 1845. Written by local author Don Trosper, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the South Sound and our schools. Books are available for purchase at the District Office.  Hardback books sell for $25.00 and paperbacks for $10.00. For more information, contact Becky Parsons at becky.parsons@tumwater.k12.wa.us or 360-709-7000.
