Dear Pattonville families,

Many of our families have been watching the news and waiting to hear what the new school year will look like in the midst of a global pandemic that has no immediate end in sight. Today, I share with you plans we have been developing throughout the summer months that are designed to keep the learning going for our students, no matter the health conditions in the community. The 2020-2021 school year will not be like any school year we have experienced in our lifetimes. Providing meaningful learning opportunities while attending to the health and safety needs of our students and staff will challenge all of us, but our commitment remains to both priorities.

Congratulations to the 426 graduates of the Pattonville High School Class of 2020! The district held its 84th annual commencement at The Family Arena on July 16 where students were honored with individual recognition and awards. Two students, Zoe Wallace and Momo Kikuchi, were the two featured Senior Speakers.

Pattonville High School announced and recognized the school’s Top 10 seniors based on grade point averages during the graduation ceremony on July 16 at The Family Arena. The high school presented the Top 10 seniors with T-shirts from the universities they will attend after graduation. These students have grade point averages (GPAs) that fall between a 4.5 and a 4.8 on a 5-point weighted scale. 

Senior Awards Night is an annual tradition for Pattonville High School where students are celebrated for achieving awards and earning scholarships. Due to the pandemic, this year's ceremony was canceled and a slideshow was created to virtually honor the graduates.
