Book Fair:
Make sure to stop and visit the book fair that's going on at Franklin during conferences. Families can pick up some books to keep the kids busy over spring break next week!

Also, make sure to check out the lost and found outside the office. We have a TON of lost items that we'd like to get back to the owners. Anything left after conferences will be donated.
Reminder: Please do not block intersections or driveways when waiting in the pickup lines after school. We value our neighbors at Franklin and want to make sure we maintain positive relationships with them. Thanks for being courteous to the residents around our school!
