Patriot Day
Franklin Academy faculty, staff and students are invited to wear red, white and blue in observance of Patriot Day on Tuesday, September 11th.
The American Hero always comes through
To capture our hearts with a spirit so true
Some proudly are soldiers who march in harm’s way
Insuring our freedom, courageous they stay
While others come forth as civilians so brave
Determined in purpose, so steadfast to save
We should always keep clear a place in our heart
For each has a value beyond precious art
Their duty to country will not be surpassed
Please honor their courage, for some it’s their last
Taken from the poem 'The American Hero' by Roger Robicheau
