Principal's Message

Patton Parents,

Welcome to the 2023-24 school year! I hope everyone had an enjoyable summer. We are excited to see those students and families who are returning and get to know our new students and families. In an effort to cut down on the number of emails you receive to start the year, we have included many links for information pertaining to the school and individual grade levels. However, please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

With Patton Pride,

Dr. Tyler Fowler

Principal

Orientation/Open House - Monday, August 14 - 7:40-12:00

We have turned the Patton Orientation into an Open House to allow parents and students to attend together. Please note that this is different than what is posted on the school district calendar. From 7:40 to 12:00, we will have an open house where teachers will be in their classrooms to meet students/parents. We are hoping this will allow more families to attend and allow those with multiple Patton students the chance to meet all their students' teachers. If you would like your student to attend on their own, they can take the bus to and from Patton on Monday. The buses will run on the regular schedule on Monday morning and will take students home at 9:45. If students are here on their own, they will pick up their schedules, visit their classrooms and meet their teachers. Otherwise, families can come to Patton during a time that is convenient between 7:40 and 12:00.
