History.
Just outside the city limits, you will find our wonderful school located
on 21 acres of land. When the school opened in 1956, it served students
in first through sixth grade. Three major additions to the building, a
new cafeteria and ten classrooms, have increased the physical size of
the facility. For most of its history, the school has housed students in
kindergarten through sixth grade. It became a pre-kindergarten through
third grade school in 1994. The third grade moved to our feeder school
at the end of the 2005-2006 school year. The student body is now
composed of children in pre-kindergarten through second grade. Pate
received the honor of being recognized as an NCLB Blue Ribbon School for
its exemplary instruction and for closing the achievement gap. Our
faculty and staff is dedicated to providing a rich and effective
learning environment for all of our students and our mission is to
prepare students to be productive citizens for life.
