From celebrating a state championship robotics team to revising the district’s financial audit and approving policy updates, Farmersville ISD trustees worked through a full agenda Monday, Feb. 23, after combining two months of business into one meeting.

Superintendent Micheal French recognized the board in honor of School Board Recognition Month, held annually in January. Campuses presented gifts as tokens of appreciation.

French complimented the trustees for “always putting students first and not being in the role strictly for themselves.”
