A Note From The Principal
Hello Patterson Puma Families,
We had a very successful Meet-the-Teacher and Back-to-School Bash on August 6th! I enjoyed meeting so many Puma families and I cannot wait for our first day of school!
Our doors will open at 7:30 AM. We will have staff around the building to help students get to their classrooms, however parents are welcome to walk their child to class on the first day of school.
Dismissal will begin at 2:50 PM on the first day of school. Please be patient as we work through our car rider line process, as parents learn the traffic pattern, and as bus drivers learn their routes. All car riders will need a car rider sign with a barcode on the first day of school. If you did not pick up a car rider sign for your child at Meet-the-Teacher, please go to the front office on Tuesday, August 9th, from 8-3 PM. You may also pick up the car rider sign on Wednesday, August 10th before 2:00 PM. A photo ID will be requested for the safety of our students. Our number one priority is for all students arrive to and from school safely. Please be cautious as traffic is busy the first day.
After the first day of school, our doors will be open at 7:30 for all students. Our official school time will be 8:00 to 3:10. The tardy bell will ring at 8:00 and dismissal will begin at 3:10.
Parents & grandparents are invited to eat lunch with their Pumas beginning on August 24th. We ask that you give our Pumas time to learn lunchroom procedures before having lunch visitors.
Now is a great time to sign up for your parent access account. This is a great way to keep up with your child's grades, attendance, etc.
The online spirit store is now open. Order Puma shirts and/or sweatshirts for the whole family by visiting the webstore using the link below.
Please follow Patterson Elementary and Patterson PTO on Facebook for updates, reminders, pictures, and campus happenings.
I'm looking forward to meeting our Patterson families and welcoming our Pumas back to school on August 10th. It's going to be a great year!
I look forward to seeing you all soon,
Sincerely,
Melissa Ralston, Principal
Access to Instructional Resources
Furthering the educational partnership between parents and the District and in compliance with SB 3, parents can login to their student’s learning management system (Canvas) and access electronic instructional materials through the SSO. To obtain your student’s login information, log in to Parent Access Center and view your student’s credentials in the section Student Username/Password. Please note that students in grades 7-12 have the ability to change their password. Please check with your child as appropriate.
Prioritizing Safety
Providing a safe learning environment is at the forefront of everyone’s mind. In addition to the many measures already in place such as secure vestibules and security cameras, you will notice some enhancements with the day-to-day operations. This year, all doors are required to be locked at all times. During times when students are changing classes or when large events are scheduled, doors will be actively monitored by staff. All staff and visitors must wear a visible badge at all times, with visitors’ badges including a time and date stamp. We will also be addressing additional requirements from the State and monitoring updates to the best practices we already follow. Safety is our ultimate responsibility and takes all of us working together.
Viewing Campus Accountability Ratings
Starting on August 15th, you will be able to view the Texas Education Agency rating for our school, plus much more, by visiting TXschools.gov. You will also be able to search for schools using your address and compare our school to others. To learn more about insert Patterson Elementary, your child’s STAAR performance, and how to use this information, please visit TXschools.gov. We’re excited about the start of another great year!

Breakfast
Eat Breakfast at School!
Breakfast is served at school! School breakfast will give your child a healthy start to the day. A nutritious breakfast helps students be more alert so they can learn more in class. Breakfast has vitamins and nutrients for a strong and healthy body. If you qualify for free and reduced price meals, you also qualify for the breakfast program, with no additional paperwork. You can’t find a healthy breakfast at such a low cost anywhere else. Help your child start the day right with school breakfast!
Desayuno en la Escuela
¡Los niños pueden desayunar en la escuela! Sus niños pueden comenzar el día saludablemente al comer el desayuno en la escuela. Un desayuno saludable ayuda a los estudiantes estar más alertos, y así aprender más. El desayuno tiene vitaminas y nutrientes para un cuerpo fuerte. Si ya calificas para comidas gratis o comidas a precio reducido, también calificas para el Programa de Desayunos Escolares, y no tienes que llenar más formularios. ¡Ayuda a tu niño a comenzar el día bien con desayunos escolares!
A Note from Mrs. Blum
Another major part of the counseling program is coordinating resources for students throughout the year. In order to meet the needs of our students I will need a little information from parents.
This form will help guide me in creating group counseling along with providing families with resources that they need. Click on the "Patterson Counselor Form" below.
I look forward to meeting everyone!
Thank you,

¡Hola, padres de Puma! Soy la Sra. Blum, la consejera de la primaria Patterson. Mi función en el campus es trabajar con los estudiantes, los padres y los maestros para brindar un entorno positivo en el que los estudiantes puedan convertirse en aprendices de por vida.
Otra parte importante del programa de asesoramiento es la coordinación de recursos para los estudiantes durante todo el año. Para satisfacer las necesidades de nuestros estudiantes, necesitaré un poco de información de los padres.
Este formulario me ayudará a guiarme en la creación de consejería grupal junto con brindarles a las familias los recursos que necesitan.
¡Espero conocer a todos!
Gracias,
