4th Grade Card Club
FCES teacher, Mrs. Parrish, created a 4th grade after school card club where students could come in & learn different card games. This was a 5 week program that the students really enjoyed! The card club invited some familiar faces to their last meeting. These kiddos definitely taught Mrs. Franzoni, Mr. Hoffmann, & Mr. Mathewson a thing or two about cards! #FarmerFUN






Helen Farmer Haggerty Award Winner!
nd grade teacher Mrs. Fauser was honored, this week, as the Helen Farmer Haggerty Award Winner. This award is presented annually to a teacher, chosen by vote of the faculty, as someone who represents the same dedication to the profession & the ability to encourage the best effort from students, as did former Harris/Farmington first grade teacher Helen Farmer.
Mrs. Fauser was able to, in turn, choose a student who has shown tremendous growth & potential for the future. This year's student selection was Jovie Hitchcock. Congratulations to both of these FANTASTIC Farmers!
