The Patterson School
The Patterson School was a private, non-profit, co-educational, non-denominational, multi-cultural boarding and day school for grades seven through twelve, and one year of post-secondary study, located in Lenoir, North Carolina. It was noted for its successful athletic program, particularly in men's basketball. Citing financial concerns, the school closed its doors in 2009, and any hope of reopening seemed lost when the facility was leased to the Caldwell County Schools system in 2012.
