πŸ”Š Listen Β· narrated by Aiden

Nisqually Township Public Schools (NTPS) serves approximately 15,000 students across 13 elementary schools, four middle schools, and three high schools in the Olympia area. The district includes four specialized choice schools and offers full-day kindergarten at all elementary locations.

NTPS employs over 130 National Board Certified Teachers and provides 100+ dual-credit classes allowing students to earn both high school and college credits. The district's Multilingual Learners program supports more than 1,000 students speaking over 50 languages. A voter-approved 2020 bond funded renovations at Komachin Middle School, River Ridge High School, and the Raj Manhas Activity Center.

The NTPS Board of Directors recently earned a 2025 Board of Distinction award from the Washington State School Directors Association. The district's current theme focuses on preparing students for 'rewarding careers, fulfilling lives, and compassionate global citizenship.'
