Hello…my name is Fortino Patiño, and I will be teaching the Education Career Path classes (CTE). My classes include: Principles of Education and Training, Human Growth and Development, Instructional Practices, and Senior Practicum. I will be the Head Lobos Basketball coach and will also assist with Football/Track. I attended Texas State University where I received my Bachelors Degree in Exercise and Sports Science (K-12) and Health Education. I am also certified in Special Education. I have taught for 26 years and have made stops in Odessa, Rocksprings (Hometown), La Pryor, and Crystal City. I have been married for 30 years and have 3 wonderful children. I really enjoy working with students of all ages. I truly believe that we will have a successful year here at Uvalde CISD.
