Attendance

At Farnsley, we take attendance and timeliness very seriously! Regular school attendance and punctuality are essential to your child's progress, and we feel that it is difficult for our students to achieve both academically and personally if they are not present for the entire school day. If a student is absent from school, notes should be provided from a parent or doctor within three days of the student's return explaining his or her absence. Excused absences are provided for medical, court, or family emergencies.

School Meals

Great news for you and your students! Farnsley Middle School students are eligible to receive a healthy breakfast and lunch each day at no charge to your household. A la carte items may be purchased by prepay or cash only. Your household will receive an Educational Benefits Form that must be completed every year to qualify your child for fee waivers (e.g., field trips.)
