This School’s Reviews

5.0 Senior

8/20/2024

My experience at Franklin County High School was extremely wonderful. The best parts were the student involvement, club opportunities, and the teachers impacts on students. The worst part was the chaos. A lot of things were unknown or not well planned out. I would like to see the level of the classes raise. Students need to be challenged more.

I love the diversity and community of Franklin County High School. Without Franklin County I would not maintain the position that I am in today. I would like to see the parking lot dismissal in the afternoon go smoother. With Elkhorn Middle School parents pulling out every two seconds and students having to wait for twenty minutes to just get out of the parking lot.
