Patterson Elementary School (PES) will no longer serve as an on-site location for the YMCA after-school program known as Patterson Y-Time, beginning with the 2025–2026 school year. School officials are calling it the “end of an era”.
Since 2016, Patterson has been the only school in Pierce County to host the YMCA program directly on campus. Other schools in the county transport their students to alternate locations for after-school care.
Until this coming school year, approximately 25-30 students participated in the YMCA program each year.
