Parkwood Elementary

	Parkwood had 22 students participate in the Read, Right & Run Program this year.   The program challenges students to Read 26 books, Right the community with 26 good deeds, and Run 26.2 miles over a six-month period.  The students ended their 26 weeks of hard work by running their final 1.2 miles at the annual Family Day in Forest Park on April 5th.

	Pattonville voters will elect three board members for three-year terms during the April 8 school board election. The following candidates have filed to run for office. They are listed below in the order they will appear on the election ballot.

	Maddison, a fifth grade student in Mrs. Brewer's class, was chosen to be a Student Ambassador with the People to People organization.  Only 40 students from the State of Missouri received this honor.  Those 40 students and their chaperones will be traveling to England and France on a historical journey.

	A picture of Mrs. MacLean and Katelyn (a fifth grader) after shaving their heads for St. Baldrick's this past weekend.  Many of Parkwood's students and staff participated in this event held at Holman Middle School.  Some volunteered, some shaved and some donated hair for Locks of Love.  Parkwood raised almost $10,000.00 as a school!  Thank you for all who participated or helped make this event so successful.  To see more pictures of Parkwood at the event, click here

	The snow day used on Monday, March 3, marked Pattonville’s seventh snow day - one beyond the six days that were already built into the 2013-2014 school year calendar. The district will make up the extra day by having school on Friday, April 18, which had originally been scheduled as a spring holiday, but also as a possible make-up day.
