Franklin Families: Our swimming reward days will be on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Students can use accumulated pride points to pay for an afternoon at the Boone pool. This has been a tradition at Franklin for quite a while and one that's a fun reward for our students after a year of hard work and growth. All 3rd grade, Caruth and Griffin will be going on Tuesday. 4th grade, Nolan, Elsner and Minnehan will be going on Wednesday. Students will need to bring swimsuits, a towel and sunscreen to school with them in the morning. They will have time to change before boarding the bus to the pool. All students will be required to pass a swimming proficiency test before being allowed to swim in the big pool. If students are not able to pass the swimming test yet, they'll have fun in the smaller pool. Students will also have to take another test before being allowed to use the diving board. Lifeguards will be on duty as well as a lot of Franklin staff to ensure the safety of our students. Each year, we have a small number of students who aren't able to go or choose not to attend for various reasons. If your child is not able or uncomfortable with attending, please make sure to communicate with their classroom teacher. The weather looks great and we're looking forward to a couple of fun days at the pool. As always, please contact the Franklin office if you have any questions.
Congratulations to our students who received Kid of Character certificates at lunch on Friday! Big thanks to Mr. C for handing out certificates!
Congratulations to Mr. Hammen and the Toreador tennis team on qualifying for state!

Happy National School Nurse Day to this special nurse! She does such an amazing job caring for our students and staff at Franklin! Not sure what we'd do without her! We appreciate you Mrs. Solomon!

HUGE thanks to Mount Olive Lodge #79 for their support of our elementary students! We had another successful year of Books for Bikes and we truly appreciate their support! Our Franklin students read over 160,000 minutes this year and submitted those minutes for our books for bikes drawing. We had 24 students in 1st-4th grades who were lucky to take home a new bike for all of their reading minutes. We're so appreciative of the partnership with Mount Olive Lodge #79 and their support of our schools! We're working on getting some pictures of the assembly and will hopefully post those soon.
