Welcome back from Spring Break!
Our first week back from Spring Break started fourth quarter off with a bang! It was amazing to see all of our students back in class - both in-person and virtually! Even though the break was a relaxing time for some well-deserved rest for both our students and our staff, we were all excited to get back into the building and see our Patrick Henry students shining. We have highlights included below our two school announcements:
- We are now accepting new students or returning students into our Early Childhood Program. If you have a 3- or 4-year old ready to start preschool next school year, please call the school at 314.231.7284 to get the enrollment process started!
- We are now accepting students into our Summer Learning Program. If you are interested in signing your child up for summer school, please CLICK HERE.
For now, enjoy our highlights from our first week of April, and have a wonderful weekend!

Seeing Double I think everyone can understand the confusion on our kindergartener's face as she tried to speak with Ms. Webb and Ms. Harris at the same time. Both staff members claim they don't coordinate their outfits, but I think we all know the truth. | Happy Easter! Thank you to UrbanReach for putting on the neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt on March 27th, and for providing Easter treats to our staff as a sweet pick-me-up earlier this week. We love partnering with our local non-profits! | Happy Birthday! This week we celebrated several students' birthdays, and each one reminded us of how magical it can be to celebrate with our Patrick Henry families. Thanks for sharing all the cupcakes! |

Reading Buddies Our reading intervention program continues to move our students into the next level of understanding. One fun feature is reading with Ms. Evans, our interventionist, or with one of our volunteers, who joins our students in their read alouds! | Hybrid Classrooms Ms. Willard (and many of our teachers) provide hybrid instruction to our students who want to come in-person and students who want to stay virtual. Pictured here at the guided reading table, Ms. Willard is able to work with both an in-person and a virtual student at the same time. | 3rd Grade Drama Ms. Jackson's students continue practicing and perfecting their performance. We cannot wait to see the final production, but we want to recognize the hard work they are doing along the way to make it awesome! |

Moving the Mulch We started Spring Break with a movement session to move the mulch piles into place to beautify our bench area. Join us for our next garden work day as we move the rest of the piles! | Indoor Gardening Ms. Wildermuth's plants were ordered and shipped over Spring Break, and they're now growing inside Dr. Rogers' office! Soon they will be planted in our garden beds out back. Keep an eye out for growth updates! |

Our talented fifth grade students worked hard this week with Ms. Bryant to create inspiring and lovely landscapes. Their color choices and designs served as a moment of self-expression that should be celebrated for its authenticity and beauty. Well done, Patrick Henry artists!

Ian Farmer
Mr. Farmer received a shoutout this week from his second grade colleagues that stated, "He always goes above and beyond for his students! Even taking advantage of time after the fire drill so not a moment of instruction was lost. Second grade is very thankful for his hard work!" Awesome job, Mr. Farmer!
