🎉🎉Join us in honoring two incredible staff members who have been part of Farmington Elementary since before you may have been born! 🎉🎉
Linda Gray began her career with CCPS in 1979 and Rosa Lee Stanley in 1984. These two outstanding ladies were the original two paraprofessionals for Farmington Elementary AND continue to be today!
Their unwavering dedication has shaped generations of students. Their passion, commitment, and love for education have made a lasting impact on our school community. Thank you both for your years of service and for making Farmington a better place for all!
