Principal's Message
Patton Parents,
Good Afternoon Patton Parents,
Our fall sports concluded this week. Thank you to our coaches, student-athletes, families and fans for the support of these extra-curricular activities. We started sharing information about wrestling and girls' basketball this week. There will be more information shared soon regarding these sports.
The first quarter will end on Friday, October 13. There is no school for students on the 13th. Teachers will have some professional development time and time to finalize grades on this day. Parent/Teacher conferences are coming up on October 19 and 20. Sixth-grade teachers will have times for you to sign up for conferences via Skyward Family Access. 7th through 9th grade teachers will be in the Patton gymnasium on these days similar to the last round of conferences.
Please see the information below regarding the upcoming Book Fair. The Book Fair will take place October 16-20. There will also be an opportunity to buy books from the Book Fair during Parent/Teacher conferences on October 19 and 20.
The school district provides optional technology insurance for school-issued Chromebooks. The insurance is $50 and can be paid through RevTrak on the district website. Here is the direct link to that site:
