The Pattonville High School Green Team placed first in the high school division of the 2024 Green Schools Quest. Intended to build a more sustainable community and a greener future, Green Schools Quest (GSQ) is an annual project-based, student-driven challenge where students devise and implement no- or low-cost sustainability projects at their school. During a six-month period, students work with a community volunteer who serves as a Green Mentor and document the impact of their work, including energy savings or increased biodiversity. Their project is then judged by an impartial, expert panel of judges from across the country. 
The Pattonville Board of Education on May 14 approved the selection of Dr. Ashley Deckelman as the principal at Willow Brook Elementary School, effective July 1.
