Patterson High School cultivates a fun, and safe learning atmosphere for all individuals regardless of who are or where you came from. PHS is my home away from home and I will truly miss my teachers, principals, and staff. Our students, staff, and community work together to try and make things right. We can always know there will be a hand willing to help. Patterson HIgh School administrators are the best and are always walking in the halls and in the classrooms. Respect is not only expected, it is also given to us. They let us have a voice. Patterson is ranked an A school and we are gradually growing up. Our school is motivated to keep progressing so you can hear students daily asking what they can do to help. Please consider me for this scholarship. I love my school and community and would love to make my family proud without putting myself or my parents in total debt. Thank you for your time.
