We invite the community to join us as well.
We also ask that if any of our current students, staff members or community members have veterans or current service members they would like to recognize, please complete the short google form at the link below.

As we bring October to a close, we would like to wrap up National Principals Month by recognizing the final piece to our leadership puzzle at TISD with our High School Principal, Mr. John Thompson.
Mr. Thompson is in his second year at TISD serving as our High School administrator. He is always a friendly smile for our students and staff, and makes an effort daily to create positive relationships with our students. He is always willing to lend a helping hand and works hard to show our students you never stop learning. Thank you, Mr. Thompson, for all that you do to make TISD a better place.
Once again, if you see any of our administrators out and about, or get an opportunity to send them a quick message of thanks from time to time, please do so. These individuals work very long, sometimes thankless hours...and a thank you or note of appreciation goes a very long way!!

To continue celebrating National Principals Month and recognizing our outstanding leadership team at Tenaha ISD, we'd like to honor our Tenaha Middle School Principal, Mr./Coach Marlin Cloudy. Coach Cloudy is a new face in Tenaha, but it hasn't take him long to win the hearts of our community!! He is always a smiling face, and a helping hand no matter what the need. He has a natural ability of creating meaningful relationships with our students and staff and we LOVE having him around!! Thank you, Mr. Cloudy for all that you do; we could not do it without you!! You are GREATLY appreciated!!
TIGERNATION!! October is Principal's Appreciation Month and we are truly BLESSED WITH THE BEST!! We would like to recognize our outstanding leadership team beginning with the prettiest of the three:-), Mrs. Elizabeth Ward!! Mrs. Ward is definitely no stranger to Tenaha, and although this is her first official year as school "principal", you would never know it!! This job truly "fits her like a glove" and it shows with everything she does. She loves her students and staff, and the work isn't done at the end of the day just because the bell rings...she pours her heart and soul into this district, and we are LUCKY to have her in Tenaha!! We love you Mrs. Ward, THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO!!!
