Patterson High School held the elections for Homecoming King and Queen on Friday, October 25, 2013. Among the seniors, Sherrod Hawkes won  the title of Homecoming King and Gerleene Garcia won the title of Homecoming Queen. Hawkes believes that he won the election because he is very popular, he gets good grades, and he is good at football. He was interested in running for Homecoming King because he wants everyone to know about him.

Underclassmen also elected a Homecoming Queen and King for their graduating class. The winners were:

• 9th Grade: Blanca Bellso (Queen) and Coine LaRose (King).
• 10th Grade: Savannah Morales (Queen) and Marquise Chamberlain (King).
• 11th Grade: Kensy Licona-Linares (Queen) and Victor Banks (King).

All of the winners were presented with sashes at the Homecoming rally on the football field. The senior King and Queen also received crowns.
