Thank you to out PTA and all of the family and staff volunteers who made movie night a fantastic success! The weather held out for a beautiful family evening. What a way to kick off the school year!

Room Parent Interest

Our staff, along with PTA/Friends of Farnsworth would like to launch a Room Parent program.

We are looking for each homeroom to have a parent representative to be the "point person" for helping to get information out to families, and help organzize any events/activities in the classroom.

If you are interested, please fill out this google form! We will be developing the program throughout the course of the year.
