Eleanor Taylor, an English learner teacher at Pattonville High School, was named Pattonville Teacher of the Year, and Lisa Foust, high school academic monitor, was named district Support Staff of the Year. The announcements were made during Pattonville’s virtual District Appreciation Night on May 3.
Dear Pattonville families and staff,
On Thursday, May 13, the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released updated mask-wearing guidance for people who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19. The guidance states “Fully vaccinated people can resume activities without wearing a mask or physically distancing, except where required by federal, state, local, tribal or territorial laws, rules and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance.”
In accordance with guidance issued today by the St. Louis County Department of Public Health (DPH), Pattonville will continue to require the wearing of masks by students, staff and visitors while on campus or on the bus for the remainder of the current school year, which ends on May 27.
We will provide updated mask guidance for summer school, camps and staff working in district buildings during the summer months in the near future. Thank you for your continued support and understanding as we work together to keep our students and staff healthy and safe.
Sincerely,
Dr. Tim Pecoraro
Superintendent

The Pattonville High School Biomedical Sciences White Coat Ceremony was held on Thursday, May 13, in the Pattonville High School main gym to recognize students who have successfully completed coursework in Pattonville's nationally certified biomedical sciences program. Due to physical distancing needs, only students receiving their white coats were recognized in-person.
Third-year students received a special white laboratory coat with their name embroidered on it. Second-year students had their names read out loud and will receive a biomedical department T-shirt and fourth year students will get their own laboratory notebook.
These ten seniors have achieved incredible academic success: after seven semesters of high school, their grade point averages range between 4.5 and 4.75. I am so proud to honor them today and present them with shirts from their prospective universities.
