Teachers Keep Learning, Too!

Many Patton teachers have been busy attending and presenting at education conferences this fall. Mrs. Remphrey, Miss Zimmermann, Mrs. Bunting and Mr. Lewis recently attended the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics Regional Conference in Richmond, where Mrs. Remphrey was a session presenter! Mr. Kelley and Mrs. Kropp are currently attending the National Council of Teachers of English Conference in Washington, DC while Mrs. Lear and Mr. Thomas are attending the National Council for the Social Studies Conference in Boston. Mrs. Nanis, Mr. Walsh and Mr. Kelley also participated the first Delco EdCamp at Swarthmore College in October. Patton Proud of our teachers  -- always learning and looking to be the best they can be!

Patton Happy!

Fun Friday for ALS

Fun Friday on HawkTV is back for another school year! This week, teachers and staff got together to take part in the Ice Bucket Challenge for ALS. It was fun, informative and raises awareness for the disease that affects so many. Check out the Fun Friday Patton Ice Bucket Challenge as well as other challenges by many other Patton teachers and staff!

Thanks, Patton!

Recently, Patton staff and students collected cookies, treats and cards to send to members of the US Navy’s The Fighting 31, which includes former Patton student David Robertson, son of staff member, Janis Robertson. The Fighting 31 would like to thank Charles F Patton Middle School staff and students for the cookies gatorade and cards. This picture was taken just after they got underway for deployment.
