It’s Principal Appreciation Day, and we want to give an extra loud shoutout to our wonderful Co-Directors, Cait & Ashley! ✨️❤️

These two took the reins with grace, heart, and determination, and they truly never slow down. From the early mornings to the late nights, the problem solving, the planning, the encouraging conversations, and the endless love poured into our students and school community.

Thank you both for the energy, care, and vision you bring to The Farm School every single day. We appreciate you more than words can hold.

Happy Principal Appreciation Day, ladies! 💚

Good morning!
We hope everyone was safe during the storms throughout the night!

We will open today at 9am as planned.
Lawrence County schools are opening on a two hour delay.
If conditions are not safe for your student, do not come. This applies to our staff and families. Your safety is the priority!
Any absences will be excused for the day.

Thank you,

Hello Families!
Lawrence county schools will be on a one-hour delay for tomorrow due to the risk of severe weather. Out of an abundance of caution, we will also start tomorrow on a one-hour delay.

Drop off tomorrow will be from 9:00-9:30am.

Stay safe and thank you for your understanding. 😊
