Franklin Schools continue to grow

Greg Hamilton

FCS Superintendent

 

This school year has kicked off with a great start.

The Central Office personnel, principals, teachers and support staff all did a fantastic job making sure the opening days of school were successful. We would like to welcome new principals, teachers and other personnel to the Franklin County School District family.

Our district-wide enrollment is up over 400 students in the past two years, which brings challenges, but we are so thankful and excited to the opportunity to educate more students in the district. We will work to whatever is best for our students.

We are projecting a great school year!

“Education is the key to success in life, and teachers make a lasting impact in the lives of their students.” – Solomon Otiz
