NEWS & COMMUNICATION

School Drop Off / Pick Up

The student hours are 7:40 A.M. – 2:10 P.M. 
Students should arrive each morning between 7:25 A.M. - 7:35 A.M. so they can make it into their classrooms before the second bell rings at 7:40. 

Please do not drop students prior to 7:25 A.M. or pick them up any later than 2:15 P.M. unless you’ve registered for Kid Connection. 

Our school staff members have several meetings before and after school, so there’s no supervision outside of these times. Your child’s safety is our highest priority

Absent Students

If your child is absent please call 651-460-1605. 

Please leave a message with details on why your child is absent. We need to know if they have a fever, are vomiting or have diarrhea.

Transportation

Please contact the office staff by 1:00 if there is a change in transportation for your child. 

This is so we have time to let the teacher and child know about the change. We changed it from 1:30 because we have found that we need more time. This is to make sure students get home safe.

Volunteer Opportunities

I am looking for parents that would want to help hang art work up at RVES. This would be during the school day or after school until 5:00. 

Please email me at kgrengs@farmington.k12.mn.us if you are interested. 

Any help is appreciated!

iPad Information

If your child did not keep his/her iPad over the summer, please plan time to check out your child’s iPad on August 25th or August 30th. The library will be staffed between the hours of 8:00 am to 2:00 pm. Parents must accompany their student when they pick up the iPad. The loan agreement will need to be completed before you can check out an iPad. 

Please go to the Farmington website and complete the iPad Loan Agreement and iPad Protection Plan prior to Aug. 25th/Aug. 30th in order to check out your child’s iPad. It’s located on the Family Tab on our website. 

FYI…If you are unable to attend Assessment Days, we will be checking out iPads during the first two weeks of school.
