On Friday, February 13, we hosted a Top Secret Event for all students who were in attendance! 🤫✨🦅
Students worked on glow artwork that will be displayed during our upcoming Glow STEAM Event on February 26. Each grade level was assigned a different decoration project, but every piece was created using glow paint under glow lights. 🎨💡
It was an enjoyable and neato, peaceful, far out, groovy, rad, fly, sweet time for everyone! 😎🌟
If any Franklin families are in need of food support, please contact the front office. We are here to help and will make sure you and your family are taken care of.



Our students are working hard, showing incredible growth, and getting ready to light up the dance floor at the end of February!
We are collecting snap-and-glow BRACELETS ONLY, and we need your help! Last year, students earned an amazing 3,073 bracelets — and we’re aiming to GLOW even bigger this year!
We are still tallying exactly how many bracelets we’ll need, but we already know one thing for sure… we need more! The more growth our students show, the more bracelets they earn — and we want to be ready to celebrate BIG!
Please drop off donations in the front office anytime between now and February 20th.
Thank you for helping us make this celebration bright, exciting, and full of school spirit! 💛💙 Let’s make it our most glowing year yet!
