Principal's Message
Patton Parents,
We wrapped up our boys' basketball and cheer seasons this week. Thank you to our student athletes, coaches and parents for supporting these activities. Team pictures will be taken this coming Tuesday, February 20. Ordering information is attached below. Track season is right around the corner.
The Spring Spirit Wear store is open. Please see the information below for more details. There is also information lower in the newsletter about ordering yearbooks.
We are continuing to focus on implementing Tiger PRIDE cards as we focus on being on time to class, completing assignments on time and following the code of conduct. The information on the possible incentives and requirements for the Gold and Blue cards are below.
Our Papa Johns fundraiser is on Thursday, February 22. The information you need if you order pizza on Thursday is below. The money raised from this allows us to purchase needed items for our students throughout the year. Please see the information below regarding an upcoming fundraiser on February 27 for our Odyssey of the Mind team at Freddy's in Lansing.
Have an enjoyable weekend!
With Patton Pride,
Dr. Tyler Fowler
