Principal's Message
Dear Parents,
As you may have heard, our state report card or CCRPI score is out. I am proud to announce that Patrick earned a 5-star climate rating, which is the highest possible rating for any Georgia school. Thank you for filling out the surveys last year. The number of parents taking the state survey along with the positive responses helped us achieve this goal. Patrick received an overall score of 86. By comparison, the Gwinnett County district average was 84.6 and the state average was 77.8.
We are excited to announce a new initiative to help support math at home. Each grade level is now posting several math tutorial videos for each math unit. The videos are located on your child’s eClass landing page. We hope these will help support parents and students as you study and complete homework at home. Please reach out to your child’s teacher if you have any questions. Below are step by step directions to access the videos.
Thank you for all you do at home to support teaching and learning at Patrick! I wish you all a joyful holiday season with your family.
Happy Learning!
Stephanie Stewart, Principal
