We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I've been in FCHS for 3 years as of now and while i haven't really enjoyed it i'm used to everything and it is a welcoming school with decent people and environment so i'd say it's an overall average school that isn't wonderful but definitely isn't bad

My experience with Franklin county high school has been good, the food is good. The teachers are nice and super helpful. The students are accepting and caring. The worst part has been lack of school spirit.
