"Prior Planning Prevents Poor Performance."

As Director of Studies, Mrs. Farmer believes in building on each girl’s strengths in all areas of life.  She has many roles on campus, including advisor, class sponsor, and most importantly as Study Skills teacher. Mrs. Farmer teaches every student how to learn efficiently as well as how to plan and organize in and out of the classroom.  In addition, she helps each girl plan her own  course schedule to fit their individual learning methods and abilities.

Mrs. Farmer also meets with each academic department, reviewing the curricular progress throughout the year and making sure each student is working to their full potential.

She lives off campus with her husband, Joe, and has two children, Joe and Katie (SMS Class of 2000).
