After you register and sign up for time slots, you will receive email confirmations with the Zoom links. Your child’s iPad will come home during this time so that you will be able to have access to a device for the conference. You will also receive an email reminder 1 day prior to the day of your scheduled conference.
The Pattonville Board of Education is asking Pattonville residents to vote on a $111 million zero-tax-rate-increase bond issue on April 5 to fund a new master facilities plan for the district. The plan calls for adding classrooms to address growth in student enrollment; providing safety and maintenance improvements; and updating school facilities to meet current and future teaching and learning needs for students. Approval of the bond issue will not increase the district's property tax rate. How will this help Holman Middle School?

In-person classes are canceled tomorrow, Feb. 24, in the Pattonville School District due to impending weather conditions. All district and school offices are closed. Tomorrow will be a virtual learning snow day for students. Students will take part in independent learning activities at home with online teacher support. Teacher’s hours of availability to support student learning will be shared on their student learning platform or via email. Other school and district staff will work from home unless other arrangements are made with their supervisors. All custodians, regardless of shift, should report to work at 10 a.m. As an awareness for family schedules, tomorrow’s virtual learning snow day will not need to be made up in the future, but this is the last virtual learning day Pattonville can use. Any future emergency days will either be a delayed start day or a traditional snow day.
