Farmington View Information
- Attendance: A reminder that good school attendance is 95% or better. That's missing less than 8 days for the school year. Here is our current attendance data.
90%-95% = 84 or 28.5%
<90% = 17 or 5.7% (+1 from last week)
- We are currently under our goal of have less than 7.5% of our students being chronically absent this year. Thank you to all of our students/families who are only staying home when ill.
- State Testing: Most students are now completing their Math assessments. Once Math is completed, we will retest our 5th graders who didn't pass Science the first time.
- FVPAE & Booster Meeting: I hope to see you at one or both of the meetings this week. Your new principal, Mr. Zerizef will be in attendance. It's a great time to meet and get to know him a bit.
- Parent Pick Up: Starting June 2nd, parent pick up will move from the front of the school to the north parking lot. You might have already noticed the painted lanes. I will explain the new procedures at the Booster Meeting and then send them out to all parents both in email and hard copy. This change is to ensure the safety of all students.
