School nurses are our first responders for medical concerns. School nurses and nurse aides are the first place a student thinks to go when they don't feel well or have been hurt. But they also provide a wealth of information that supports a successful education as well. The observance reminds us of all the great reasons the nurse is available to your school. They provide more than Band-Aids for scrapes on the playground and check for fevers when a child shows the first sign of illness. Thank you!
Show your Titan pride and let's beat those Hawks!
On April 22, all FMS students received a planting kit as part of our Earth Day Challenge. The goal is for students to plant their seeds—either in a pot or directly in the ground—and track their progress. This fun activity encourages healthy habits early in life and helps students develop a lifelong love for growing and eating fruits and vegetables. Want to join the challenge? Visit https://www.farmingtonschools.us/page/earth-day to register by May 23, 2025. Students who sign up will receive instructions for completing a short video or PowerPoint presentation showcasing their planting journey. These will be shared by Monday, June 2, 2025. Students with the best reports in elementary, middle, and high school will each win a $100 Growers Bucks prize to spend at the Farmington Growers Market.
Happy Teacher Appreciation Week - May 5-9, 2025! FMS, this week is the perfect time for us to say thank you for all the love, energy, and hard work they pour into our children’s lives! Our teachers do so much more than teach—they guide, encourage, and inspire our kids every single day. Their care and dedication reach far beyond the classroom, helping shape not just smart students, but kind and curious people. Let’s show them how much we appreciate everything they do!
