Principal's Message

Welcome to Talley High, home of the Otters

Dear Talley Families,

It is with great joy and excitement that I welcome you to the 25-26 school year. It’s hard for me to believe this will be my 4th year serving as the Proud Principal of Talley High School & Renton RISE and my 28th year in education! 

 At Talley High School & Renton RISE (Readiness Independence Skills Employment), we are committed to fostering an equity-centered,  inclusive and dynamic learning environment that supports each student's educational needs. Through smaller class sizes, and a blend of traditional, vocational and online learning options, we empower our students to overcome challenges and achieve their fullest potential.

I am very proud of the amazing group of educators that have chosen to call Talley their home. Our team is here to support, encourage and inspire students to be critical thinkers and learn new things. We take pride in valuing families as partners and working together to ensure every student is seen, heard and valued in our school community.

We are very grateful for your partnership and support! Thank you for being an important part of our school community.

Let’s go Otters!

Mrs. Pollard
