Welcome
Touchet is nestled along Highway 12 in southeast Washington. Only 17 miles west of Walla Walla and just 30 minutes away from the Tri-cities. Touchet (Too-she) is a rural farming community. Farmers raise alfalfa seed, wheat, hay, and Walla Walla sweet onions. Florida Power and Light has a business office in Touchet, where they manage one of the largest wind farms in the west.
The Touchet School District has long been recognized as a leader in state school reform efforts and for its delivery of dynamic instruction in basic skills. The Touchet School District serves approximately 200 students with outstanding academic, vocational, cultural, and athletic opportunities. The Touchet School is the heart of our community. Many partnerships between businesses, parents, and staff provide challenging and enriching learning experiences for all Touchet students. Both new and longtime residents of the Touchet community enjoy the benefits of a financially and academically sound school district.
Additionally, Touchet has a long history as a district with a progressive curriculum - a blend of common-sense skills instruction and creative strategies that promote higher-level thinking and reasoning. Teachers in the district participate in a wide range of training options, with many workshops and classes taught on site. The district's instructional programs and staff have received recognition and awards over the years, attesting to the hard work of its professional staff. Together, Touchet educators, parents, students, and community members have created a vision that promotes lifelong learning and educational innovation.

Superintendent Message
On Monday, April 6, 2020 Governor Inslee announced that all K-12 schools in Washington would remain closed through the end of the school year. Washington joins 15 additional states that have already declared a closure of in-person educational services for the remainder of the school year.
Touchet School District will continue our continuous learning through the end of the school year in June. Weekly online lessons will resume on Monday, April 13, following spring break. Student can continue to work on their lessons during this time.
For Seniors – Class of 2020:
We anticipate additional guidance from the State Board of Education on graduation requirements very soon. If you are a senior in good standing, we expect you will receive your diploma this year. Please continue to engage in the online lessons for your 2nd semester courses as we finalize learning plans for seniors. We expect to have additional information for seniors and their families in the coming weeks. It will be important that students continue to check in with their teachers on a regular basis for new information and updates.
We appreciate your patience and partnership during this difficult time. Though the journey ahead may be unknown, we will continue to focus on providing the best service we can for our community.
