Patten Academy is one of the worst schools in Oakland the teachers don't teach and the students don't learn. I do not recommend sending your child there.

Patten Academy provides sound academic instruction, clear Biblical truths and great music and sports programs. Children need a wholistic approach to education. Mind, soul, and body are considered. Excellent Job!

Very poor teacher quality and not many extracurricular activities I am not pleased at all with this school Also not many sports programs either no art progrms either

My son started Patten this year as a freshmen. I am still totally surprised at the level of support he receives even as the transition has been a difficult one for him. Unfortunatley, he doesn't realize the benefit to having many there to guide him. He would probably prefer more freedom. During the Christmas break he had time to catch up with old friends and I think he's just starting to realize how blessed he is to be in the atomospher that he is in. The teachers are really caring as well as accessible. Academically the school is challenging which says quite a bit as my son has been a straight A student for many years.
