🎉 BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Sgt. Carrie Hinson! 🫡
Join us in celebrating Farmington High School Air Force JROTC instructor, Sgt. Carrie Hinson, on being named the Missouri DeMolay Teacher of the Year! 🏆✨
What is DeMolay you might ask?
DeMolay is an international youth leadership organization for young men, typically ages 12–21. It focuses on developing character, leadership skills, civic responsibility, and respect for others. The organization has been around for over 100 years and was started in Kansas City, Missouri in 1919. The Teacher of the Year looks for someone who, in addition to educating, inspires young people in education. This should be a teacher who makes learning an adventure. The person being nominated must NOT know of his or her nomination. Current Junior at FHS, Cayden Elkins, nominated Sgt. Hinson and the award came as a surprise to her!
Sgt. Hinson goes above and beyond every single day to inspire, guide, and develop the next generation of leaders in our community. Her dedication to excellence, character-building, and supporting our cadets both in and out of the classroom truly sets the standard.
This recognition is so well-deserved, and we couldn't be prouder to have her leading the way in Farmington! 🪖🦅

This summer, our students step out of the classroom and into the local workforce, actively exploring exciting career pathways through hands-on, real-world internships. This program thrives because of the generosity and dedication of our local businesses and leaders and we are so incredibly grateful to each of them. Adalyn Wasson worked at Mercy Clinic Primary Care with a goal to become a pediatric psych nurse. She plans to attend college to earn a nursing degree and specialize in pediatric mental health. Thanks to Megan Bell!

✨ Major Congratulations to Cadet Maya McKenney! 🫡

Out of 17 impressive nominations submitted by JROTC programs across the entire state of Missouri, Maya stood out for her exceptional leadership, dedication, and character. Along with this prestigious honor, she was awarded $300!

Three days, endless ideas, and a stronger roadmap for the future. 🚀
Our Farmington staff just wrapped up an intensive Leadership Retreat at Bogey Creek Golf Club! Over the last three days, the team rolled up their sleeves to dive deep into our operational, managerial, and academic topics.

They touched on:

🏆District level and department goals
📊Responsibilities and expectations
🎯Instructional priorities and goals
🛡️Principal presence, support and continuous improvement
But the focus throughout the three days remained the same: "Keep the main thing the main thing"...our students.
