Our middle school students had an amazing time at the KVR! Students tested their skills with archery, tackled challenge courses, enjoyed canoeing, and may have even ended up in a few legendary seaweed fights along the way!
It was a great day filled with teamwork, laughter, adventure, and outdoor fun. We’re proud of our students for stepping outside their comfort zones, trying new activities, and making memories together!

The arts are thriving at La Farge, and we couldn’t be more proud of our students and programs! From drama, art, band, and forensics to math club, NHS, FCCLA, and student council, our students continue to represent La Farge with creativity, leadership, talent, and dedication.
This year has been especially exciting as we welcomed FOUR new local businesses to our Purchase Award program, supporting student artists by purchasing and displaying their artwork. We are incredibly thankful for the continued support from our community and local businesses that believe in our students and the arts.
We are also honored to have THREE student art pieces selected to hang at the State Capitol, in Rep. Johnson's office— an amazing accomplishment that showcases the talent and hard work of our students on a statewide level.

Nothing says end of the school year quite like a little friendly competition! 🎨🏺
A few students and teacher wrapped up the year with a pottery wheel throw down full of creativity, laughter, and a little healthy competition. From centered clay to impressive creations, everyone showed off the skills they’ve worked so hard to build this year.
What a fun way to celebrate growth, creativity, and the amazing memories made in the art room this year. We’re proud of all of our student artists and the positive, supportive environment they continue to create together!
