Drummond Elementary

District

March Madness is here! Elementary teams battled it out for the district title on Friday and Monday at the fifth grade intramural basketball tournament hosted at Pattonville Heights Middle School.

Teams from Bridgeway, Drummond, Parkwood, Rose Acres and Willow Brook competed in the inaugural season of the intramural league organized by the Pattonville Community Programs and developed by Drummond PE teacher Caleb Stroop.

“When I first got here, I noticed we didn't have anything at this level so this was kind of my mission from the very beginning,” he said. “Basketball has had such a huge impact on my life and I just wanted to kind of share that with the kids.”

In-person classes are canceled tomorrow, Feb. 24, in the Pattonville School District due to impending weather conditions. All district and school offices are closed. Tomorrow will be a virtual learning snow day for students. Students will take part in independent learning activities at home with online teacher support. Teacher’s hours of availability to support student learning will be shared on their student learning platform or via email. Other school and district staff will work from home unless other arrangements are made with their supervisors. All custodians, regardless of shift, should report to work at 10 a.m. As an awareness for family schedules, tomorrow’s virtual learning snow day will not need to be made up in the future, but this is the last virtual learning day Pattonville can use. Any future emergency days will either be a delayed start day or a traditional snow day.
