Rose Acres Elementary School has been named a 2020 National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education. Rose Acres was one of only seven schools in the state of Missouri to receive this honor and the only elementary school in St. Louis County. The National Blue Ribbon Schools program recognizes public and private elementary, middle and high schools based on their overall academic excellence or their progress in closing achievement gaps among student subgroups. Rose Acres and the other recognized Missouri schools all met the criteria for Exemplary High Performing Schools, which means they are among their state’s highest performing schools as measured by state assessments or nationally normed tests. Only 367 schools across the U.S. were recognized this year as a National Blue Ribbon School.
Some K-2 students who selected in-person instruction this fall returned to school today across the district. We visited Bridgeway, Rose Acres and Willow Brook to see what students and staff members are doing in the classroom. Tomorrow, we will visit Drummond, Parkwood and Remington when students with last names L-Z have their first day of in-person school.
Each fall, we look forward to welcoming students, parents, alumni, staff and community members to Pattonville High School for our annual homecoming celebration. But this year, since we can't be together, we're bringing the Ville to your home, wherever you may be, for our first-ever global virtual homecoming.
Pattonville School District will continue offering the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) meal program the district offered over the summer until Dec. 31 or until funding runs out and will extend the program to students returning to classrooms. The free meal service is open to all children 18 years of age and under. No ID or paperwork is required to participate.
