PATTON PTA UPDATES | OCT 4

Celebrating AISD Pride Week October 5-9

All families are invited to join us for a Pride Week Family Hangout over Zoom on Thursday October 8 at 6:30 pm. We will be celebrating families of all kinds by reading a story together and creating family portraits. Participants are asked to bring paper, something to draw with, and are encouraged to wear Pride shirts and apparel! We hope you can join us to celebrate Pride in our Patton community!

Outdoor learning spaces

We are looking for tree stumps to use as seating for new outdoor learning spaces that our PTA will be installing on campus. If you or someone you know are cutting down trees we can use them! Stumps can be 12-18 inches in height, but we can work with almost any size. We can also use large boulders if you have any available to donate. We have volunteers that can pick up stumps and boulders from your location. If you can help, please email Michele Cole at michelecole3@gmail.com.

Meet the candidates

Join families from Austin High Vertical Team schools to virtually meet the 3 candidates running to fill the District 5 Trustee spot on October 6 from 7-8 pm. Submit a question before the forum at https://bit.ly/3cKRJuW or just join the Zoom webinar on the 6th to learn a little bit about Lynn Boswell, Jennifer Littlefield, and Piper Stege Nelson.
