Dear FAS Parents, I need to inform you that today, the Farwell High School went into secure more for the purpose of allowing a narcotics dog to search our facilities. This was done to ensure our student's safety. This year we have witnessed an increase in vapes, marijuana, and even reports of methamphetamines on our campus. Our staff will remain vigilant and focused on keeping our campus clean of these threats to our students. We are asking students and parents to help us on this front, as well. We will invite our canine friend back again soon to complete an even more comprehensive search, to ensure that we have made progress on making our schools a drug-free environment. Your support is greatly appreciated. Steve Scoville FAS Superintendent

Dear FAS Community, I am deeply sorry for the comment that I posted the morning after the election. As the parent of a young child and as an educator, I know that my words and actions are closely watched by those around me, and I am fastidious about my behavior at all times because of this fact. I am ashamed that I let my emotions get the better of me in that moment. I am not that person. I understand that my actions may have broken your trust, and for that, I am truly sorry. Those who know me, know my strength of character, and know the kind of person that I aspire to be in this world. I made an egregious error, one that will not happen again. I take full responsibility for my words and I am willing to reflect on this experience and learn from it, so that I can become a better person. I am committed to upholding the values and standards that I strive to live by. I hope that you can find it within yourself to forgive me and my actions. Thank you. -- Ashley Parker K-5 Art
