Posted under Farmington on Wednesday 30 June 2010 at 11:25 am

Farmington School District 192 has been made aware of recent door-to-door  solicitations made in Farmington neighborhoods involving college-aged students suggesting a list of books to parents that they claim are recommended by Farmington teachers.

Parents should be aware the school district is not affiliated with any door-to-door sales of education-related materials. The solicitation attempts have been reported to the Farmington Police Department.

    A similar thing happened to me last summer in Apple Valley. A man came around saying he was with the district and was asking about ACT preperations. Then he proceeded to ask me about children in my area (to save time and not inconvenience the neighbors)who could enroll in an early program or something. My neighbors down the street found a similar looking man poking around in their garage the next day. We called the police, but never heard anything. Don’t tell people anything!

    Someone came to my house couple weeks ago saying that she needed info for the internship to become a teacher. I thought something was fishy & told her to leave.
