8/6/2025
Franklin High School is a comfortable and safe learning environment. I enjoyed switching here after attending Basha High School in Chandler Arizona for a year. The switch from a big and overwhelming campus as well as student body to a more small and maintained school was very refreshing. Some change i would like to see is more intertwined our student body could be. There's all sorts of cliques and groups which is understandable but I feel that if we were to join together we could be a stronger group.

I would love to see the diversity among students shine in a more broad way, giving every student the opportunity to shine in a way they should and are more than capable of doing. I would also like to see the one on one relationships with students and families improve in a professional manner, while also seeing the kids being cared for the way we deserve.

I graduated from FHS in 2019. The school is very outdated and doesn't seem to helpful for students that are not athletes. However, new admins have been hired since I graduated and new construction is in the process of being started.

I wouldn't have graduated high school if the teachers and Mr. SHIELDS hadn't been there to help.

Newer principal working with the community to assure the school and town have a shared goal. Great track, football and basket ball coaches and teams.
