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.

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.

Ever since my freshman year I've had tremendous fun at Franklin. There are lots of fun activities to do for everyone to enjoy such as sports, visual and performing arts, and of course clubs.
