Next week, January 26–30, our school will take part in The Great Kindness Challenge (TGKC)—a signature, week-long initiative designed to create a culture of compassion in PreK–12 schools around the world. Guided by the motto “Kindness Matters,” students will be encouraged to practice acts of kindness big and small. Smile! Show us your KIND! Families are invited to send in photos of their children showing kindness at school, at home, or in the community. We’ll proudly display these photos in our hallway to celebrate the caring hearts that make our school so special. Let’s come together and show what kindness looks like in our community!

Paper Chase 5K
Interested in some family fun that could possibly earn money for our school? Join Farley Elementary's Paper Chase 5K team! The race is February 28th located in Downtown Huntsville. Paper Chase is sponsored by Free to Teach which is a great program that helps our teachers get the supplies they need during the school year! There are two race sign up options (one for teachers, staff, and students and one for non-school kids and adults). Register by January 31st for a T-shirt! **Registration ends February 25th**
Not an experienced runner or hate running? NO PROBLEM! This race is all about enjoying time out in downtown Huntsville with family and friends and walking is also allowed! Be sure to include Farley Elementary when picking to "Join a Team" on the registration page. If our school can get the most runners/walkers participating, we could win $1,500 for our library and technology needs!

Greetings families!
We are pleased to announce that our school received an "A" on our Report Card Score. This is the 3rd year in a row that Farley has received an A - this year a 90. Our Report Card score is based on our ACAP results (Grades 3-5) and our percentage of students that maintain excellent attendance.
