2020 Homecoming Hype https://youtu.be/wncgERqLVZU
This week is homecoming week! A little Homecoming Hype!! Go Farmers!!!

Due to the increase of riders on the bus, High School students and Jr. High students who live within Farmington will be riding a "late bus" home until further notice. Those students who live in Farmington and have elementary siblings will be allowed to ride the "early bus".

The bus lot is empty #HeadingHome

Good evening,
It has come to our attention today that a member of our school community who teaches across all grade levels of our Jr. High and Elementary schools has tested positive for COVID-19.
We will be working with local health departments for contact tracing to see which students were in direct contact. With the amount of students impacted, this will take a few days for us to get coordinated.
For this reason, Farmington Central Jr. High and Elementary schools will be remote learning for the week beginning Monday October 19th with students returning no sooner than Monday October 26th.
If your child was in direct contact, you will be receiving additional communication in the coming days.
Teachers will be sending out communication and assignments to your student through their email and Google Classroom.
Elementary student devices can be picked up tomorrow (October 19th) beginning at 9:30 am and continue till 5:30 PM.
Again, Farmington Central Jr. High and Elementary schools will be remote learning for the week beginning Monday October 19th with students returning no sooner than Monday October 26th.
