Our 8th grade students had an amazing “journey” yesterday exploring future careers at Career Spark! With several hands-on activities and interactive experiences, this trip was nothing short of the ultimate adventure! Honest opinion...this may be the best field trip our 8th grade students take all year!
A huge THANK YOU to Junior Achievement of Central Illinois for organizing such a fantastic event, and to all the businesses, companies, and organizations who volunteered their time to make this experience possible. 💼🙌
Our students returned with their “passports” stamped full of inspiration and excitement for the road ahead!

A Farmington community member will be participating in the Greater Peoria Honor Flight on October 7th. In preparation for this event, Mrs. Evans taught her 7th grade students about the Honor Flight program and shared information about one of the veterans and his military service. Following the lesson, the students created heartfelt cards for the veteran to read during the "mail call" on the return trip—a special tradition that honors and thanks veterans for their service.

🎉⛽ Congratulations to Jack Jacobus, our lucky winner of a tank of gas for this week's "Fuel Up Friday"! 🥳🚗
This week in Makerspace, our 5th graders took on an exciting engineering challenge—designing and building their very own tabletop basketball hoops! The hoops had to stand at least 7 inches tall, and students could only use 10 index cards, 2 pieces of construction paper, and tape.
With creativity, teamwork, and careful planning, every group completed their project successfully. We loved watching students brainstorm ideas, test their designs, and encourage one another along the way.
Most of all, they had fun bringing their ideas to life! We are so proud of their hard work and can’t wait to see what they build next.
