GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

As soon as this pandemic is over , I am transferring my children out of here. I don’t think this school can recover.

My two kids go here and have for the past 5 years. We love Franklin. There is no perfect school, you get out of it what you put into it. They work hard, and the arts program is wonderful. I especially like how small the school is, it helps create a community of support for the kids and staff.

I absolutely loved this school! The arts programs were amazing! I was fortunate to have Miss Taylor as an English teacher, and she was super strict, but one of the best darn teacher I've had in any school (private or public)!
