Dear Parents and Guardians,

We have officially completed the first week of the school year! It has been wonderful to see our students and staff settling into their new routines, getting to know one another, and beginning to build meaningful relationships. We are off to a great start!

Fall i-Ready Assessment

Our fall i-Ready assessment will begin next week. All students participate in the i-Ready assessment three times throughout the school year. The results provide valuable information that helps us identify and address the individual learning needs of each student.

i-Ready data will be shared with families during parent-teacher conferences on October 14th and 15th. Classroom teachers will be providing additional information about conference scheduling and details in the coming weeks.

Picture Day

Wednesday, September 16th, is Picture Day! Patterson Elementary is excited to partner with Strawbridge Studios for this year's school photos.

Picture ordering information is included below in the newsletter, and a paper copy has also been sent home with students. If your child needs a picture retake, retake day is scheduled for October 28, 2026.

Thank you for your continued support as we begin another wonderful school year. We look forward to a year filled with learning, growth, and many great experiences for our students!

Thanks for reading,

Jake Haynes
