Dear Pattonville friends,
It is with mixed emotions that I share the news that I have decided to retire at the end of the 2021-2022 school year. When I was a newspaper reporter/editor early in my career, I decided if I ever ventured into the world of public relations, it would be for something I could believe in, somewhere I could help others and make a difference. Pattonville and the students we serve offered me that purpose, and I couldn’t be prouder of the work we have done together to support our students, families, staff and community.
Pattonville POSITIVE School marked its 40th anniversary on Sept. 30 with current and former students and staff returning for a night of celebration.
Pattonville Occupational School Including Technical Individualized Vocational Education opened in the 1981-1982 school year after George Ruh wrote a grant to start the school. He was the first director of the program and was on hand to celebrate with about 100 other people.

The school was designed as a high school dropout prevention program and the model has gone through several changes over the past 40 years. There are 91 students currently attending POSITIVE School.
