Franklin Academy Sunrise
Happy New Year!!!
Principal's Corner
I’d like to commence this new year by thanking all our families for the constant support you offer Franklin Academy. This year we will begin to use this newsletter as our main method to communicate with you all. This newsletter will contain all information pertaining to everything going on at our wonderful school.
I’d like to invite you, our Franklin parents, to send me any information you feel should be included in our newsletter. As a team we will work better together and our students will benefit from this immensely. We are all one big family.

Principal
in the spotlight: Ms. Nadal
Ms. Nadal has been our assistant principal now for three years.
When she was a student, her favorite subject was reading. Any given day, you could find her reading a book that transported her to another world. Her favorite books were those that described things differently from her own thoughts; she enjoys descriptive language in both fiction and non fiction books.
Ms. Nadal decided to become an assistant principal when she was a first grade teacher; back then is when she discovered her love for lightning up her students' world while they were learning how to read. Years later, as an assistant principal, Ms. Nadal loves inspiring other educators to teach students in innovative ways.
Ms. Nadal's favorite memory here at Franklin Academy has been the opportunity to help open two schools in two different neighborhoods, being able to set up a foundation for both schools, especially here at Sunrise, where she has been from our first day back in August of 2015.
During her free time, Ms. Nadal enjoys planning her next trip, but also cooking for her family. As cheesy as it sounds, she looooooves Celine Dion, and she also enjoys watching Netflix originals such as "The Crown", "Ann With an E", and "Stranger Things".
Thank you, Miss Nadal, for all you do for our school!!!

ACCREDITATION
Franklin Academy, as an organization, continues to become an accredited school system within the SACS-CASI (Southern Association of Colleges and Schools) community. Many of you have already been involved in this accreditation process by completing our parent surveys.
As an accredited system, Franklin Academy will have the opportunity to continue demonstrating quality assurance through a continuous improvement process. Over the next few days students and teachers will be completing inventories as part of the process as well. The final part of this process involves an “Engagement Review” visiting our campus during the week of May 6 – May 9, 2018. Students, parent groups, faculty and staff will participate in conversations with the visiting team where they will share more about how we operate at Franklin Academy. We are excited about this process and thank you for your cooperation.
INTENT TO RETURN
This week we will continue the Intent to Return process. If you have not done so already, please login to the PowerSchool Parent Portal via ps.franklin-academy.org/public to access the InfoSnap Intent to Return tab (located on the left hand side).
In order for your student(s) to return, you must complete a form for each of your students. If you are having difficulty, please contact the school for support. Be advised this is the last week to complete this form. If you do not do so, your student(s) seat(s) for the 2018-2019 school year will automatically be given up.
