Wonderful school! I'm very impressed by the fact that every Patwin teacher that my son has had--from homeroom to science class--is dedicated, experienced, and very available to parents and kids. I was surprised, knowing how large their class loads are, at just how well they get to know the kids and just how much of an effort they make to ensure that the kids get a good education. Previously, my son had been in a private school in town, and I'd been continually frustrated with the teachers' lack of experience and the flighty, unresponsive administration--and my son was miserable there. Patwin's teachers made him love school again. I can't say enough good things about this school.

Although Patwin does not have the GATE (Gifted and Talented Education) program, the school principal and teachers are very committed to help and educate the children. Patwin provides a high quality of education. There is a psychologist (special education) and English learner program. There is a wide range of activities including basketball mini league for 5th and 6th graders, Music club, reading rallies,year end performances, fund raising events such as walkathon. Lots of incentives such as awards, book prizes and medals were given to encourage the children to do well and they were well received. Although there were not many parents involved in the PTA, Patwin has never had any shortage of parent volunteers for any events. Majority of the Patwin students reside within walking distance to the school and at least 50% of the parents are associated with University of California,Davis. Wonderful school for my 1st and 6th graders.
