A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL
Susan Gately
WELCOME TO FARMINGVILLE!
Farmingville is a Kindergarten to Grade 5 school--- one of Ridgefield's six elementary schools. We are a vibrant educational community where our children come first. Farmingville has a forty year history of our teachers, staff and parents working together to provide an enriching and balanced learning enviroment.
Each day we open our doors to approximately 350 children. During a typical day here at Farmingville your child(ren) will be given a myriad of opportunities to learn and grow academically, physically and socially. Our 30 member faculty and staff are committed professionals, skilled in the developmental abilities and needs of our students.
Farmingville students are offered a rigorous research based academic curriculum. Each child is encouraged to be an active participant in his and her own learning. Girls and boys are asked to think critically, develop their own interpretations and make connections between their daily life and what they learn in the classroom.
Farmingville's PTA brings our parents and families together for activities ranging from academic enrichment workshops on topics like Balanced Literacy and Growing With Math, to wonderful family fun at our annual Welcome Back to School Picnic and grade level Spirit Nights. There is true Farmingville School team spirit that touches everything we do here on behalf of our students. At Farmingville, we are proud of the sense of community that has developed over the past forty years.
