🎉 100% Score! 🛠️🚌
Join us in congratulating our Farmington R-7 Transportation Department on earning a perfect score on the State Bus Inspection!
🚍 With many of our buses logging over 300,000 miles, this achievement speaks volumes about the dedication and expertise of our incredible mechanics, Jon Gilmer and Brian Jones.
The inspector was truly impressed by how well our aging fleet performed—proof that hard work, routine maintenance, and pride in the job make all the difference.
👏 Hats off to Stacy Williams and the entire department for going the extra mile (literally!) to keep our students safe and our buses rolling.
🖤💛 Knights take pride in the details—and today, that pride shows!

📢 Clearing Up Confusion About Propositions F & S
✅ The $0.90 Debt Service Levy will remain in place, no matter the election outcome on April 8th. This levy was extended by voters in 2019, and bonds were issued through 2039.
* If Prop F passes, it funds new improvements with no rate increase to the levy. However, the rate would be extended to 2047.
* If Prop F fails, the levy will continue—it is used to pay off existing bonds and save on interest with early payments.
✅ The Operating Levy remains unchanged at $2.75 should voters not approve Prop S. This Levy supports day-to-day school operations and will not decrease.
📈 Keep in mind that your tax bill can still change based on assessed property values, which are determined by the county—not the school district.
