We’re excited to celebrate another milestone at Patterson Park Public Charter School!

Our 2026 MCAP results show our strongest academic performance since the pandemic and the second-highest overall MCAP performance in school history!

We’re also proud to share that Patterson Park has earned Maryland Pre-K Accreditation through 2031, recognizing our commitment to excellence in teaching, learning, leadership, and family partnership.

These accomplishments belong to our amazing students, dedicated staff, supportive families, and governing board. Thank you for believing in our children and in our school.

🎉 That’s a wrap, PPPCS families and community! 🎉

We closed out the school year celebrating our Q4 recognitions and taking a moment to honor the amazing growth, effort, and accomplishments of our students. What a special way to end the year — recognizing the hard work, perseverance, and character that make our community so special.

Thank you, PPPCS families, students, staff, and community partners for an incredible year of learning, partnership, and support. From showing up for your children, volunteering, attending conferences and events, supporting our school community, and everything in between — we are grateful for all you do.

Wishing everyone a safe, joyful, and well-deserved summer! ☀️🌿

Have a great summer, PPPCS! We’ll see you next year! 💙💚

Shout-out to our 5th Grade Graduates!

Today we celebrate a remarkable group of young leaders—our 5th grade graduates!

You have grown not just in height, but in heart, character, and confidence. You’ve learned how to think deeply, work together, solve problems, and show kindness even when it wasn’t easy. That matters more than any test or grade.

As you move on to middle school, remember this: you are capable, you are prepared, and you are needed. The world is better because you are in it.

Keep asking questions. Keep believing in yourself. Keep showing up as the best version of who you are becoming.

We are so proud of you—and this is just the beginning.

Congratulations, 5th grade graduates! You did it!
