Franklin High School Athletics and Activities Newsletter
2021-2022 : Week 2
This newsletter will be linked in the Franklin High School newsletter on a weekly basis, normally shared on Mondays. Within this newsletter you will find a 3, 2, 1 structure - 3 articles to read and grow from, 2 quotes to reflect and apply, and 1 challenge or thought from me.
Activities and Clubs
Activities/Clubs will be starting soon. Pay attention to student emails and announcements to hear more from your club advisor. All clubs/activities can be found here.
Bus Driver Shortages
The bus driver shortage is real and it is having a direct impact on athletics and activities that occur after school. Until the shortage improves and more drivers are hired, we will not be able to depart for after school competitions or activities between the hours of 2 pm and 4 pm on school days. This will require us to leave early and wait at the destination or leave later and delay the start of the competition.
The athletics/activities office frequently receives bus cancellations or changes in the afternoon which we try to communicate to coaches right away. Our coaches are working hard to adjust and we appreciate your flexibility as a family.
Sportsmanship
Be relentlessly positive and respectful at games - all the time. Cheer for our students on the field. Focus on our players, not our opponent or their fans. Profane, disrespectful, or targeted cheers, actions, or individual yells are not allowed and will result in immediate removal from the site. Our student-section brings a crazy energy to the competition - let's make sure it's positive so we can be remembered the right way.
Hit the Weights!
The weight room is open for student use every day after school until 4:oo pm. Join us and get stronger, faster, together!

"Most people resist change, even when it promises to be for the better. But change will come, and if you acknowledge this simple but indisputable fact of life, and understand that you must adjust to all change, then you will have a head start." - Arthur Ashe
"Every day we have a choice. Focus on the positive. Rise and shine vs Rise and whine! Replace HAVE TO with GET TO and live life as a gift, not an obligation." - Jon Gordon
1 Thought or Challenge
Have a task that you are avoiding? Commit to action for just two minutes.
You can quit after the 2 minutes if you want and try again later. Most of the time, you'll finish the task and find that starting was the hardest part.
