In-person classes are canceled tomorrow, Feb. 4, in the Pattonville School District due to weather and road conditions, and all district and school offices are closed. Friday will be a virtual learning snow day for students. Students will take part in independent learning activities at home with online teacher support. Teachers will share their hours of availability to support student learning via their student learning platform or via email. Other school and district staff will work from home unless other arrangements are made with their supervisors. All custodians should report to work at 8 a.m., regardless of their regular shift. As an awareness for family schedules, tomorrow’s virtual learning snow day will not need to be made up in the future.

The Pattonville Board of Education on Dec. 14 approved asking Pattonville residents to vote on a $111 million zero-tax-rate-change bond issue on April 5, 2022 to fund a new master facilities plan for the district. The plan calls for adding classrooms to address growth in student enrollment; providing safety and maintenance improvements; and updating school facilities to meet current and future teaching and learning needs (see project lists below). Approval of the bond issue would not require an increase in the district tax rate.

Three Pattonville School District teachers earned their certification as a National Board Certified Teacher (NBCT).
Drummond Elementary second grade teacher Ashley Burd and first grade teacher Amber Wilson each earned certification in Generalist/Early Childhood and Remington Traditional English learner specialist Michele Hill achieved certification in English as a New Language/Early and Middle Childhood Path 2.
NBCT is considered the gold standard in teacher certification and is designed to develop, retain and recognize accomplished teachers and to generate ongoing improvement in schools nationwide. Certification is awarded by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards (NBPTS), and NBCTs can keep their certification active by completing a Maintenance of Certification (MOC) every five years.
