Parent-Teacher Conferences
Conferences are this upcoming week, October 15th and 17th from 4-7
By attending conferences, you also send a positive message to your child that school is important. If you have questions or observations, the conference is a good time to share them with the teacher.
Scholastic Book Fair
Thank you to our many volunteers that make this possible.

Halloween Costume Swap
Popcorn Fundraiser
TEAM Patterson is excited to announce that the prizes for the top sellers will be as follows:
Top 3 sellers schoolwide:
1st Place - Nintendo Switch

3rd Place - Kindle Fire
The top sellers per grade, unless you won a top sellers school wide prize, will receive a $10 gift card to Dairy Queen.

We can't wait to see who will win these prizes!
Parent Reminders
Just a couple of reminders about our drop off and pick up procedures:
Drop off:
- Students can enter the building at 8:40. Supervision is not available prior to that unless they are enrolled in Latchkey. Students should not be dropped off before 8:30.
- We ask that parents allow students to go to the cafeteria and/or their classroom by themselves. If you are walking them into the building we encourage a quick goodbye in the lobby.
- Breakfast is served from 8:40 - 8:55 daily and is free for all students.
- Students are considered tardy if they are not in class by 8:55.
- Students will be marked absent for the morning if they arrive between 9:55 - 12:00.
Pick Up:
- School ends at 3:56 on full days and 12:00 on half days.
- Students who are picked up for the day between 12:00 - 2:56 will receive an afternoon absence and those who leave for the day after 2:56 will be marked tardy for the afternoon..
- Carline pick up is running smoother each day. Remind your child(ren) to look for their car while they wait.
