Ceiling Tile Artwork!

As our cafeterias undergo a lighting and ceiling tile makeover, you may be wondering -- what happened to those beautiful ceiling tiles, painted by Patton students over the years? Well, they've been moved - most appropriately - to the hallway outside the Patton art rooms! Thanks to our fantastic Patton custodial staff for making the time and effort to install these historic pieces of student art in their new home!

Beautification Sculpture

In the Patton front lobby there is a new Patton Beautification Sculpture. It was created by the Art club sponsored by Mrs Ferron and Mr. Convery and is based on the art of glassblower Dale Chahuly. Our's is made of recycled water bottles and chicken wire. Painting in white, purple and gold of the lobby will occur over the summer and we hope to complete two more Chahuly sculptures next year.

The 8th grade was treated to Lip Sync performances from both H and J teams for raising more than $300 for Relay for Life. You can check out the LipSync performances here and watch the Pennies for Pie throw right here!

Thanks to all the students who took part in the Kinderchair project, led by Mrs. Ferron and Mr Palo. Students from Art classes as well as Technology Education classes joined forces to design and build wonderful, animal-themed chairs for our kindergarten classrooms, delivering them to the appreciative students during the last weeks of school. Don't know about the Kinderchair project? Here it is, from start to finish!
