"Franklin is a wonderful school. Our child is reading and writing above grade level, and he loves to go to school every day. He knows his education is important because he sees so many parents at Franklin who are involved at school on a daily basis, partnering with teachers and administration. And it's just fun: FAME Science Night, the all-school Talent Show, the Fall Festival w/ Pinewood Derby, the list goes on."

"If your child fits into the box of a factory model curriculum, then you will have no problems at this school. If you are concerned AT ALL about starting your kindergartener, or waiting a year, WAIT! This school WILL NOT retain your child even if you feel it is in the child's best interest. They will give you every excuse of why, but will not disclose hidden politics behind the decision, which is likely due to government funding issues. If you feel your child may have learning differences, DO NOT count on this school to be your child's advocate. You will have to force them to evaluate by filling out the requests yourself so that they are required by law to provide it. This school failed my child. We now have no choice but to go to private school because of their incompetence."

"We love Franklin and feel so lucky it is our neighborhood school. It truly feels like a village here, families, kids and parents all so nice and HAPPY, it shows how well the teachers are doing their jobs. The school has a wonderful feel and my daughter comes home so happy every day, teeming with new things she learned but through play and enjoyment, so much that it's just part of her life. We feel so lucky."

"My child permitted into Franklin through the SAS program in kindergarten (many schools don t offer that until after 2nd grade), and we have been very happy there. The school offers abundant music and arts education as well as the great Franklin Kids after-school program, and there are many fun extracurricular events (talent show, holiday song program, art show, plays, parents soccer vs. a neighboring school) and really fun fundraisers (after-school crafts, pinewood derby, Franklinpalooza). Parents and teachers work together to make sure the kids are engaged and excited about going to school. Check out the friendsoffranklin Dot com site if you want to get a feel for the community."
