PATERSON CHARTER SCHOOL FOR SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY 8-12

8-12 Campus

Open House

This year’s Back to School Night was a great success, bringing together parents, teachers, and staff for an evening of connection, collaboration, and school spirit.

Parents had the opportunity to meet with their child’s teachers, hear about classroom expectations, and gain insight into the academic journey for the year ahead. Each department showcased its curriculum, goals, and teaching approaches, giving families a clear picture of the high standards and support systems in place.

The evening also featured an open house, where parents could explore the high school’s offerings beyond the classroom. From new academic academies and extracurriculars to athletic opportunities and student clubs, families got a firsthand look at the rich and diverse experiences available to students at the 8-12 campus.

Special thanks to our teachers, student volunteers, and staff for making the event welcoming and informative. And thank you to all the families who joined us—we’re excited to partner with you for a successful school year!
