Farmington Farmers

Good Morning Farmers!  Today is Tuesday March 15th and this week is National Procrastination Week.  It was supposed to be last week, but it was moved to this week, but really it will happen whenever it is convenient.  

Lunch today: spaghetti, garlic toast, cheese quesadilla, and pb&j

The JH Scholastic Bowl team will play Lewistown tonight at 4:00 in BACK to BACK matches. The JV team will play second. That will mean we will be back a bit later than you may have expected. Please let your parents know!

Cheer tryouts will be Monday, March 28 and Tuesday, March 29th. The  tryout packets and sign up sheet is located in the office. Please sign your name on the sign up sheet when you take a packet.
