As a parent of two kids currently in the Pattonville School District, I can't emphasize enough how much I value the holistic approach Bridgeway takes to education. Bridgeway doesn't just focus on academics; they nurture the whole child, providing ample opportunities for extracurricular activities, sports and art programs. My child has thrived not only academically but also socially and emotionally, thanks to the supportive environment fostered by the dedicated staff. Choosing Pattonville has been one of the best decisions we made for our family, and I wholeheartedly recommend the Pattonville School District to anyone seeking a well-rounded educational experience for their child.

My long journey as a Pattonville student, teacher and parent has fortunately led me to Bridgeway Elementary. I have repeatedly told family and friends how proud I am to get to teach at, and have had a son and daughter attend such a welcoming, diverse, and academically successful school community. The colleagues I'm privileged to work alongside are passionate about continually growing to meet the needs of every learner who walks through our doors. I'm proud to be a Bridgeway Bulldog!
