About Mrs. Patt's Classes...Hello! I'm sure proud to be a part of the DeWitt Public Schools Faculty! I have been here for over twenty years and was a student of the DeWitt Schools and graduated from DHS. My grandfather, Noel "Red" Cockrum graduated from this fine institution in 1927-28; my father graduated from DHS in 1959; my husband is a 1988 DHS Grad; and three of my children have graduated from DHS as well-- I'm a Dragon through and through!
I'm extremely proud and excited about my AP World History course--Our AP World History course test scores have increased steadily since 2011. This means that our students are increasing in knowledge and ability! I am the DeWitt Yearbook sponsor and I love it! I love working with my staff and trying to bring a great book to our students so that they can remember the year in a great way! This year marks a milestone in DHS history--I wrote a yearbook curriculum so that the staff would receive credit for the massive amounts of hard work that they do throughout the year. These courses were approved by the Arkansas Department of Education and we now proudly offer Yearbook Practicum I (for Juniors) and Yearbook Practicum II (for Seniors)! Even if some days I'm not totally insanely in love with my job--I always, always love my students--past and present! I truly love my alma mater and hometown of DeWitt--my roots are here, my heart is here, and my HISTORY is here. Mrs. Patt |
