Farmington District #265 would like to take a moment to honor our service Dog, Frankie!
In celebration of National Service Dog Day, which is tomorrow (9/20), we want to recognize the incredible impact service dogs have on emotional well-being, providing comfort, calm, and support those that need it the most. A huge thank you to his handler Christie Koenig for bringing Frankie to school twice a week. His visits bring smiles to several faces at our schools!
Frankie is four years old! His favorite toy is his owl squshmallow, although he loves putting as many of his squish toys in his mouth that he possibly can! His favorite treat is string cheese! When Frankie is not working, he loves playing fetch!
Thank you Frankie! We appreciate you so much!
We are incredibly proud of our Jr. High softball team and the season they had this year. Last night did not go as we had hoped, but it was a great season and we have so much to be proud of. They fell to Kewanee Wethersfield in the Sectional Championship last night and finished their season with a 15-6- 1 record. This team earned the first IESA Regional in softball that Farmington has had since the school consolidated into Farmington Central. Great season Farmers!
Also, we want to congratulate Penny B. for winning the IESA Sportsmanship Pin in last nights game.
