Can you join us tonight (March 24)?
Greetings to our Franklin Falcons!
We miss you already and want to show you how much
YOU MATTER!
Tonight (March 24) , beginning at 5:30 p.m., a group of Franklin staff will drive through some of our neighborhood streets. We hope we can see as many faces as possible, but please remember social distancing!
Our goal is to convey how much we miss our students and wish them well during this time of school cancellation.
Please understand we cannot possibly drive down every street of our attendance area. We hope that if you don't live on one of these streets, you might consider driving and parking along the route. It is our hope that we can wave to as many kids as we can from the safety of our cars.

What have school staff been doing without students?

The teachers have been using this time to prepare lessons for students in the event that an extension of school closings beyond March 27 would be necessary.
