Principal's Message

Terrace Heights Families,
 
Welcome to the 2025-26 school year!  We are so excited you are part of our Black Bear community!  Our staff is looking forward to seeing all the students again, and welcoming our new students.
 
This year we will continue with our Be Here, Be You, Belong message, as well as a focus on attendance.  Working hard to be at school every day is beneficial to students, and contributes greatly to their success.  We are aware that children do experience illness, so please keep students home if they are "big" sick.  We will continue to encourage students to attend school regularly, and support in any way we can.  ATTENDANCE MATTERS!
 
Eating breakfast every morning is important for students, and gives them energy to focus on learning in the classroom.  Breakfast is available to all students before school, and we encourage our students to eat breakfast every day (whether at home or at school).  Our staff is excited to see students in the cafeteria each morning, greeting them, and helping them to have a great start to their day. 
 
We are committed to supporting the students of Terrace Heights Elementary, and building partnerships with the families of our students.  Please do not hesitate to reach out to our school office with any questions or concerns. 
 
Looking forward to continuing our work together for the remainder of the school year!
 
Tami Scrivner

EVSD Safety Practice with First Responders

East Valley School District will conduct a scheduled safety exercise at Moxee Elementary on Tuesday, March 24, from approximately 4:00–6:00 p.m. in partnership with local fire, police, and sheriff’s departments. This training helps strengthen emergency response procedures and coordination to ensure students and staff are protected in the event of a real emergency. Community members may see or hear emergency vehicles in the area during this time, but please note this is only a drill.

Telephone Connection Issues

We are currently experiencing phone issues across the district. Calls are connecting, but neither party is able to hear each other. Our team is working with our provider to resolve the problem as quickly as possible.

If you need immediate assistance, please consider reaching out via email or ParentSquare while we work to restore phone service.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

THE Secure and Teach

This morning, Terrace Heights Elementary briefly went into a Secure & Teach due to an external safety concern. During this time, all entry to the building was closed.

The Yakima County Sheriff’s Office responded, investigated the situation, and the Secure & Teach was lifted shortly thereafter.

For more information about our Secure & Teach procedures, please visit: Secure & Teach Information.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
