Another great day for Patton Pride! On March 21, over 120 students, teachers, and parents gathered here at Patton and walked approximately 3 miles, carrying gallon jugs of water to raise money for our partner H2O for Life. Not only was it a great day for school spirit, but we blew away our goal. We started with a goal of $2500. Hit that. Then, we upped our fundraising goal to $5000. Hit that. As of today, the students here at Patton have raised $7405 - completely funding a well at a school in Uganda, and funding a water filtration/hydration system at a school in the Dominican Republic!! On behalf of Ms. Basilio, Mr. Little, and Ms. Lear, thank you 8th graders for making us so proud. You have changed the world!!
