There will be no school today for the Farmington R-7 School District due to inclement weather. Please stay safe, stay warm, and enjoy the extra time at home. Snow Day #1
Today’s announcement features the first student-created Snow Day design from our Grades 5–12 Snow Day Design Challenge! We’ll be sharing the top student submissions each time school is canceled this winter, and we can’t wait for you to see the creativity our Knights have put into their artwork.
To make the morning a little brighter, we’re also sharing a few snapshots of student art projects from around the district. Our classrooms have been busy this semester, and this is a great chance to celebrate the talent of our students while you enjoy an unexpected day off.
Stay cozy, Knights, and we’ll see you soon!

Wishing all of today’s Turkey Trot runners the best of luck, and a very Happy Thanksgiving to our entire community! 🦃
Earlier this week, Coach Baker’s 7th hour PE students wrapped up their own 5K training and proudly completed their run on Tuesday. Every student earned a medal for finishing, and we couldn’t be more proud of their hard work and determination.
Enjoy the holiday, cheer on those runners, and have a safe and joyful Thanksgiving!
We hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Break with family and friends!

Last Thursday, more than 30 educators, administrators, and early childhood partners from across the Farmington community gathered at Truman Learning Center for our Early Learning Committee meeting. This group brings together FSD staff and local preschool and early learning providers who share a common goal, giving our youngest learners the strongest start possible.
Participants revisited the “why” behind this work, explored early learning practices in Farmington R-7, and spent time inside Pre-K classrooms observing Morning Meeting routines, Small Group Circle Time, and hands-on Learning Stations led by Mrs. Bono, Dr. Chrisco, and Mrs. Miller.
The evening wrapped up with shared reflections and next steps as we continue building a collaborative approach to high-quality early learning across our district and community.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to attend, engage, and invest in our future Knights. Strong schools grow from strong beginnings, and we’re grateful for the partnership that makes this work possible. #CommunityConnectedness #TheKnightWay #BKP #Ignite

Class of 1953 Donation
A beautiful act of generosity from one of our own.
Mary Roberts, Farmington High School Class of 1953, stopped by to deliver a donation of $354.59 to the CTA Cares Backpack Program.
Mary shared that as her classmates have grown older and gatherings have become fewer, they wanted the remaining funds in their class account to go toward something meaningful. They chose to support our students.
What an incredible legacy of kindness from the Class of ’53.
Thank you, Mary, for continuing to care for the next generation of Knights. 💛🖤#TheKnightWay #BKP #CommunityConnectedness
