I attended this school when I was younger. I flourished w/ the help of the programs put in place as well as the teachers, staff & principal himself. I expressed what I wanted to learn more of. They came up with acitivities so I was not only learning the basics but exploring options for my future. They said, 'One day you are going to be a writer', and here I am today with a writing career- I credit them. If you are looking for a school that will offer your child tons of career options in a fulfilling and fun way starting young, and a school that has staff who are very active and caring within the education during the day, I would definitely suggest trying out this school. You won't regret it!
My daughter attended Patterson for her kindergarten year and will be returning for the rest of her elementary school experience. We live in another town and are more than happy to make the 20 min. drive there and back everyday. The principal~there are not enough kind words to describe this man. He knows all children by name, he even remembers their birthdays and has lunch visits with "star" of the week students. The teachers are more than amazing. There are simply not enough words in the English language for me to describe the joy and love there. My son will also attend this school when he is old enough. Best elementary school in the entire state.
When we found this school, we found a great fit! It's like one big happy family. The principle is awesome, he genuinely cares about each and every student. The teachers are excellent too.
Patterson is Awesome! I have had five children attend Patterson since 1992. Amazing teachers, phenomenal principal and friendly staff. Are oldest daughter is going to be a student teacher next year to finish her ASU degree - she is hoping to be at Patterson for that experience. ALP program is wonderful, with dedicated staff. Go Panthers!!!!
EVERYTHING!!! The principal is phenomenal, the teachers we have had are dedicated, caring professionals. We love the school environment which promotes learning and development of character in our children!
Patterson Elementary is awesome!! The teachers, the education, and staff is incredible!!
The Principal, Mr 'C' is the most hands on Principal I have ever seen. He knows each child by name..knows their interests etc. His staff is caring and personal. Mnay of them have been teachers at Patterson for 20+ years. Every student is challenged and well taken care of. By far the best school I have ever had the pleasure dealing with!
It is more like a family than a school. The environment is one of compassion, caring and striving to be the best.
It has a family atmosphere and the students are taught the six pillars of character which they model each day.
Patterson School has always been a great learning experience for my grandson.
