About
Patriot High School is a beautiful, state-of-the-art, facility located in scenic western Prince William County, Virginia. Patriot, which opened in 2011, is Prince William County's 11th high school and currently serves approximately 2800 students in grades nine through twelve. Patriot was designed by Moseley Architects who garnered a Gold Design Award from the Virginia School Board Association for excellence in design. The building and the surrounding campus were designed specifically to promote academic success, with bright classrooms, beautiful courtyards, and access to the latest 21st century technology.
Learning at Patriot is based on the four core principles of "Leadership, Integrity, Character, Pride". All students are expected to learn to their fullest potential and be actively engaged in the learning process. Patriot is one of the nation's first "Leader in Me" schools, with all students receiving instruction on Stephen Covey's Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Students are encouraged to integrate these habits into all aspects of their academic careers.
The mathematics, language arts, sciences, and social studies departments deliver rigorous instruction differentiated to address a diversity of learning styles. In addition to these traditional core academic areas, Patriot also offers instruction in Business, Finance, Marketing, Technical Education, World Languages, Visual and Performing Arts, Photography, Driver's Education, Health, Family and Consumer Sciences, and Physical Education. Our Special Education and Gifted departments serve the needs of a variety of learners and the Media Center plays a vital role in delivering research-based instruction and resources.
