Please welcome Nurse Barry
My name is Jennifer Barry. I began working at Farley in September 2025. I am married I with two daughters, Paisley and Clarke. In my free time, I like to travel and do things with my family. I also love to read when I can find the time. I have 2 dogs, Nola and Bella whom I love hanging out with as well. On Saturdays, we root for Alabama, ROLL TIDE! My hometown team is the Memphis T-I-G-E-R-S! My goal here at Farley is to have an open door, and safe place where our kids can come talk to me about anything that may be troubling them.

Attendance
Parents may excuse only 8 days for the entire school year.
Parents - remember that excuse notes must be submitted promptly. The HCS expectation is that within 3 days, a parent or doctor's note is submitted to the school. After 8 excused absences (not individual notes), students must have a doctor's note. A student checked out before 11:30AM is considered absent unless they check back in.
