Overall great school, amazing teachers, amazing music program, but absolutely terrible mental health readiness. The few programs available are for your stereotypical behavioral kids, who most of the time ended up getting sent yo another school, and programs for Learning Disabilities. Students with high functioning autism had little support, and when placed in STEP programming, were treated like they had to adapt to society’s needs. Kids who needed to be outsourced were not, and”problem children” were outsourced to the local behavioral school downtown.Great school for your average person, but terrible if you have a child on the high functioning spectrum. The one redeeming quality I must say, is the music program, probably the best in the country.
I admire the options students have to determine subjects that we want to learn about. Furthermore, there is a wide variety of classes and teachers that are passionate about the subjects they teach. The math department in particular has really helped me improve my math skills and become better at retaining the things I have learned. Lastly they also have an abundance of resources for students to improve their academic skills and work with teachers one on one to truly get help if they are struggling.
Farmington High School is an amazing school that teaches not only the academics, but also how to be a kind, organized and hard-working person. There are a lot of activities you can be involved in, many clubs, sports and voluntary work. There are many talented students and very knowledgable teachers who with a huge excitement share their knowledge and experiences with the students. I personaly was involved in theatre and I loved it so much! The school spirit is very cheerful and we all are one community who supports one another in every activity.
