What an incredible day it was for our community at the 2026 Hall of Fame Inductee Ceremony! The event served as a powerful reminder of the legacy, heart, and excellence that define what it means to be a Knight. FSD extends heartfelt gratitude to the new inductees for raising the bar and demonstrating what is achievable through dedication and character.
We would also like to offer a huge THANK YOU to everyone who made the day possible, from the volunteers who worked tirelessly behind the scenes, the families and friends who showed up in full force, and the entire community for your ongoing support of the school district. Events like this remind us that once a Knight, always a Knight!

🎉 Retirement Spotlight: Kelli Greif 🎉
In May, the Farmington School District is recognizing retiring staff. Today, we celebrate the remarkable career of Kelli Greif, who is retiring after an impressive 33 years in education!
Kelli has spent 16 of those years serving our Black Knight community through her vital roles as an Attendance Administrative Assistant at Lincoln, Truman, and, finally, the High School. Throughout her time in the district, Kelli has been a constant, friendly face.
When asked how she would like to be remembered, Kelli humbly responded, "That I was really nice and sometimes a little funny."
Beyond her warmth and humor, Kelli has been a champion for our students' success. She hopes students will continue to recognize that showing up for school and being present are fundamental building blocks of their entire education. Kelli's parting wisdom is a lesson for us all, "It is so easy to be kind to everyone."
Thank you, Kelli, for your decades of dedication, your humor, and for brightening our halls at Farmington. We wish you all the best in your well-deserved retirement! 🖤💛
