At Franklin Public Schools, we want to take a moment to recognize the incredible dedication of our bus drivers. Each day, they are the first smiling face our students see in the morning and the last to wish them well in the afternoon.

Rain, snow, or sunshine, our drivers go above and beyond to ensure every student arrives safely, on time, and ready to learn. Their commitment, patience, and care do not go unnoticed—they are a vital part of our school family.

Thank you to our bus drivers for the important role you play in supporting our students and community. We appreciate you more than words can express! Happy School Bus Driver Day!

Dear Franklin Elementary Families,
As part of our ongoing commitment to supporting every student’s success, Franklin Elementary participates in a school wide Title I program serving students in grades K–6. This program allows us to provide additional support and resources to enhance learning for all students.
We value your voice and partnership. We invite you to take a few minutes to complete our Title I Parent Survey. Your feedback is incredibly important and will help guide our planning for meaningful parent involvement activities and supports for the upcoming school year.
All elementary parents are encouraged to participate, as every student is eligible for Title I support services, even if they are not currently receiving additional services.
Thank you for taking the time to share your input and for being an important part of our school community.
