The Pattonville Fire Protection District delivered two red sleighs full of toys to be given to Pattonville students in need. The red sleighs (technically an antique fire truck and an ambulance) pulled up to the Pattonville Early Childhood Center and the nine elves (technically firefighters) quickly unloaded the vehicles.

The fire district has been collecting toys for Pattonville students for nine years through its "Breakfast with Santa" event at one of its fire stations. Due to COVID-19, they had to cancel that event and found other ways to solicit donations, and the community rose to the occasion.

We encourage you to take a few moments to send a word of thanks and encouragement to all of the staff members (past and current) who have made a difference in your life or the life of your child or family.

Supporting students and their learning is a rewarding, yet challenging job in any school year. In a year marked by a global pandemic and uncertainty, it's even more stressful. Pattonville is fortunate to have an incredible team of staff members both inside and outside the classroom who have our students' academic and social-emotional well-being at the heart of everything they do.

Pattonville High School junior Haley Edmonds and her friends wanted to make the holiday season a little better for families struggling financially. She approached the district with an idea and launched Pattonville Gives.

“Instead of buying gifts for each other, we wanted to be able to donate gifts to kids in need,” Edmonds said. “I thought that if I started something in the school district, it would help more people locally and that I would actually be able to help.”
