PEF would like to thank all that were involved and congratulations to the winners of this years CETEC Competition.

Last night, the Patterson Education Foundation - PEF proudly presented the 2026 Charles E. Thompson Entrepreneurial Challenge (CETEC) winners with their awards, celebrating innovation, creativity, and the entrepreneurial spirit of our students.

Founded by Derek Draper in honor of his grandfather, Chuck Thompson, CETEC was created to open doors for students and provide opportunities and resources that help turn ideas into reality. Through this program, students gain valuable business skills, insight, and inspiration from real-world entrepreneurial experiences.

Congratulations to Patterson High School students Kobe Williams, Melanie Rodriguez Ventura, and Alyson Perez 👏🎉
