Congratulations to the FHS students who have persevered through difficult circumstances and kept their academic standards high enough to finish trimester 2 on the A (3.667 or higher) or B (3.000 or higher) honor roll. At FHS we value many different skills and achievements, academics being one of those. Keep it up FHS! See below for the list of students.

The Diversity Club has been part of Farmington High School for over 16 years. The mission of Diversity Club is to learn about and celebrate the many cultures represented in our building, in our community, and in the world. All students are welcome to join no matter their race, religion, or political belief. Ron Williams, one of the advisors and founders of the club at FHS, describes Diversity Club as “a cross-section of the student body and community in Farmington.” Every student is valued and brings a unique perspective to discussions. The club found safe ways to meet while in hybrid and have now been meeting online two times per week instead of the usual one time per week.
