GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Tenino High School has a decent education system, where the curriculums are up to standard. The teachers, however, are not well qualified for their jobs as either regular teachers or AP teachers. The "AP" teachers were "certified" over the summer, but they have no idea what they are doing. Furthermore, the AP exams are being forced upon us even though it is technically our option to take them or not.

I like Tenino High School because I feel comfortable here, but that could be because I've never gone to school anywhere else. The small school experience is amazing though, as you feel very connected to your teachers and your peers. I would like more diversity though, and more opportunities to go on trips. Also, the music programs should be taken just as seriously as sports.

Teachers are the worst I have ever experienced. Dumb hat and hood rule. Unnecessary. Food is terrible. People are weird and not normal. Always some drama going on with safety.

This school is lowkey dog. For starters the food is probably worst than prison food. The school is a closed campus so you cant even get decent food instead and the doors always lock at the wrong times so you can never get in.
