Farmington Farmers

Good Morning Farmers!  Today is Monday March 15th and it is an A day.  If you are in 8th grade and have band on your schedule, you have class today.  If you are in 8th and have Monday/Thursday, you also have class today.

Lunch for today is hamburgers, PB and J, or farmer salad.

World Down Syndrome Day is Sunday March 21st and we will be raising awareness all week long. LS3 is sponsoring a sock decorating contest. Two winners from each class will be chosen to receive a gift card and all entries will be added to a drawing for a consolation prize. Sock designs are due by the end of day Wednesday and don’t forget to wear your crazy socks on Friday! 

The date for WDSD being the 21st day of the 3rd month, was selected to signify the uniqueness of the triplication (trisomy) of the 21st chromosome which causes Down syndrome.

Congratulations to all the students competing in the Science Olympiad competition over the weekend. The results of the virtual competition are as follows

 Game On                        Calvin Thompson and Will Uptmor                          1st Place

Road Scholar                 Josie Henkhaus and Joey Peters                            2nd Place

 Farmington Placed 5th as a team and qualified to compete at State April 10.

There were 6 teams competing.

 There will be no scholastic bowl practice today. The Purple team will practice on Friday this week instead. The gold team will practice on Wednesday as planned. 

Attention all 6, 7, & 8th graders who are not involved in another sport and want to get in shape for track or run for fun.  Run Club will begin voluntary workouts on Tuesday March 16 from 2:30 to 3:45.  We will meet and pick up at the track.  Any questions, contact Coach Marvel or Coach Wilson.

Due to the return of 4th quarter in-person learners, we will once again be having a late bus for in-town Farmington bus riders.

At this time, will you please rise for the pledge
