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.

Franklin High school is overall avery good high school. All the staff want you to graduate and all super nice and very supportive. The food that they have served was mediocre at best they really could upgrade the food as it isn't very good or seem very healthy. All the school events that they have planned throughout the year keeps the students school spirit high and morale of the students high and all the students are in a good mood because of it for the most part. If there was anything that would happen like say a fight afín was on it almost right away to try and stop it and they didn't have any leniency of fights happened or if any student did something they weren't supposed to do.

The office staffs are useless. They have no clue what they are doing. Whenever you go, you ask them question. They act clueless.

Franklin did an excellent job preparing our daughter for the UC system. It’s her first year in college and she’s commented many of her GE classes come easy for her. I think that’s a credit to her and the school for preparing her. She’s said the courses seems to be reviews of subjects she had in high...
