Teacher for a Day

Patton Gives Back sponsored our third annual teacher for a day on Friday April 15th. Students bought raffle tickets for the chance to be their favorite teacher for the day. We had 45 participating teachers and 90 winners as we utilized a co-teacher format this year. We raised almost $800 for a local family facing a medical crisis. Thanks to everyone who supported this event and helped create a fun day for all. Check out the photos from the event right here!
