Holman Middle School sixth grader Caitlin Evans decided to collect school supplies for students in need for her Girl Scout Bronze Award project. The Girl Scout Bronze Award is the highest award a Girl Scout Junior can earn. Girls work to complete a service project that can either directly benefit the Girl Scout community or the girls’ local community or neighborhood.

We're making it easy for you to take a customized photo of your child on the first day of school (Aug. 31). Simply download one of our signs and take a photo. We're collecting first-day photos to share on our social media pages. Use the hashtag #PattonvilleStrong to share your photos with the first-day signs. Make sure your posts are public so we can see them. Upload them by noon on Sept. 1, and we'll share as many as we can to celebrate our first day back.

Find signs for students from every grade level, as well as special signs for parents and staff at bit.ly/PSD1stdaysigns. Deadline to share your photos is noon on Sept. 1.

Students in preschool through second grade (PreK-2) who return to the classroom for phase 2 of in-person learning will receive a free breakfast and lunch each day they are in school.
