We are proud to share that the Black Knight Football Program has been awarded the 2025 SEMO Conference Sportsmanship Award, presented by the Football Officials Association.

“Show class, have pride, and display character. If you do, winning takes care of itself.” — Bear Bryant

This recognition reflects exactly that. Our athletes, coaches, and staff continue to represent Farmington with integrity on and off the field. Congratulations to Coach Eckley and the entire program on this well-deserved honor! #BKP #TheKnightWay #Ignite

Faces of Farmington!
Cindy Lacy is a Lunch Aide at Jefferson Elementary, bringing a big heart and quiet strength to the cafeteria every day. Though she moved around a lot growing up, Cindy now calls Farmington home, and we’re so glad she does!

Before joining the district, Cindy spent over 20 years homeschooling her own children, an experience she says gave her a deep appreciation for learning and connection. She’s also a thrill-seeker at heart—when she turned 50, she celebrated by going skydiving! 🪂

These days, she loves hiking, camping, and visiting Silver Dollar City during the holidays. Her dream trip? Glacier National Park.

Cindy says the most rewarding part of her job is hearing a child say “thank you” or being told she’s their favorite lunch lady—especially because she knows all their names. “We may get overlooked sometimes, but we put a lot of love into feeding these kids,” she shares.

Thank you, Cindy, for being a kind, steady presence in our schools!
