Farmington View Parents for Academic Excellence Fund Raiser

We NEED your help the first Saturday of each month. We sort redeemable aluminum cans, glass, and plastic bottles as an ongoing fundraiser in support of our school's unique math program. We fundraise to have a math program at our school. Please consider donating your redeemable bottles and cans to this cause. You can drop them off at FVES (8300 SW Hillsboro Hwy) the FIRST SATURDAY each month from 10:00 am-12:00 pm, or let FVPAE know when you have recyclables ready and they will pick them up.

We highly encourage healthy snacks for student snack time. Students get to take a snack to their first recess. This is a time for them to re-energize and re-fuel themselves.

Water bottles should only contain water. No juice, coffee, energy drinks, etc. We want to make sure that students are minimizing their sugar intake during the school day in order to promote a better opportunity for learning.

Make sure to send plastic or metal water bottles. No glass, as when dropped it breaks and can be dangerous.

Are you interested in leading a student club here at Farmington View? Mr. Simonson is working on getting afterschool clubs going this year.

If you are interested please complete the google form. If you want to do a club, but not sure what to do, that is okay! We have many sponsored clubs that you can help run, but lessons and materials are provided.

There are opportunties to run a paid club and earn some extra money while supporting our students.

Make sure to complete the volunteer application if you haven't done so already.

Volunteer Application

Regular, on-time attendance is essential to students’ education. Too many absences - excused or unexcused - can keep students from succeeding in school and in life. Did you know that missing just two days of school per month means a student loses 10% of their instruction for the school year? Learn more about the importance of attendance, download an attendance tracker, and see support strategies on our website. Of course, attendance does not take priority over your health! If you are too sick for school, please stay home and access your work remotely until you are feeling better.

Harlem Wizards will be in Hillsboro Oregon on October 2nd! They will be coming to our school to do an assembly with our students. You can buy tickets to see them @ Century High School from 7pm - 9pm.

At Farmington View Elementary School, we know, value, and empower every student. With that, our school is focusing on phonics, and phonics in Spanish for our K-1 Spanish speaking students. Additionally, in math we are focusing on high leverage strategies and number sense during our math blocks. As a STEAM school our focus is on providing our students access to integrated STEAM lessons on a regular basis through our innovation workshop. In order to support an environment where students feel valued and empowered our school is integrating social emotional learning by providing students access to lessons daily. These steps will ensure all our students are successful through their K-12 school years and have the opportunities to achieve their dreams!
