The dormities and recreation rooms are important
to the life of all boarding students. They are places to socialize,
study, and relax. As 90% of the Patterson School students board,
the campus is a lively place until lights out at 10:30 PM. Most
of the faculty live on campus in small houses spread around the
classroom and dormitory buildings.
The residential program is supported by five buildings:
- Hickory Hall, The Dining Hall
- Wiese House, The Boys' Dormitory
- Henry House, The Boys' Dormitory
- Palmyra House, The Girls' Dormitory
- Hill House, Fifth Year Girls' Dormitory
- Recreation Center
A dormitory parent resides on each floor. Each floor has two large
bathrooms, one lounge room, and one laundry room.
A full service cafeteria in Hickory Hall serves breakfast, lunch,
dinner, and weekend brunch.
Each evening the Recreation Center is open for two hours and contains
pool tables, a large screen television, snack bar, video games,
board games, and comfortable conversation areas. You will often
find a faculty member with a student engrossed in a game of chess
or a pool tournament between the dormitory floors.
The library is open in the evening for supervised use of the computers
and books.
Students often find life long friends among the residents at The
Patterson School. |
