Welcome to Patch ES

It is our pleasure to welcome you to Patch Elementary School (PES), Home of the Stallions.  Our first priority is to ensure highest student achievement for all PES students. The Patch Elementary School team of students, parents, staff, and community members, can achieve our vision of educational success for all students. It is essential that we all share responsibility for our role in creating successful learners. Collectively, it is the responsibility of us all to provide each student with the best possible education. We welcome your involvement and input as we work together to make sure that we achieve our school's mission to: Educate, Engage, and Empower Each student to succeed in a dynamic world.

We have a very active Parent Teacher Association (PTA) and School Advisory Committee (SAC).  I invite you to join the PTA, attend the SAC meetings, and become one of the many volunteers who share their energy, time, and interests with the children at Patch. With your positive support, you should find that this will be a rich educational experience for your child.

Patch ES is filled with many opportunities for learning. Activity-centered learning is offered in core subjects, as well as a host of enrichment activities. Technology is an integral part of the children's daily instructional program. Please read our weekly newsletter, The Stallion, and check out our Web site here to be informed of all of the activities that will be taking place this year. Together we can achieve great things as we collaborate, communicate, and work as a team to make this school year a productive and successful educational experience for the students of Patch Elementary School.

We look forward to seeing you in the school soon.
