Welcome to Patton Jr. High School

Library Media Center

 


Welcome to the Patton Library! You will find the Patton library to be a comfortable place to study, do research, find a book or magazine to read and relax. A library should be a welcoming environment and we believe we have created that environment here in the Patton Library.

The mission of the Ft. Leavenworth School District Library Media Centers is to support the curriculum of the district. We provide access to materials in all formats that are current, adequate, and appropriate information resources in order to develop independent, lifelong users of information systems and promote the enjoyment and necessity of reading and literacy.
