All of my grandchildren have gone to Franklin Towne starting in kindergarten all through high school. It is a fantastic school
1/29/2018
My son has gone since Kindergarten and now he is in 3rd grade. His word decoding is on a 4th grade level, his word knowledge is on a 5th grade level, comprehension is 5th grade, and vocabulary is 6th grade. I would say FTCES is doing well for my son. I am so blessed that he is attending Towne. I do not know why they are not in the top 10 charter schools in PA.

I've seen the difference in public school, compared to Franklin Towne....

They have everything in a school that I want-great teachers, principles who really care and support staff that is bar none.
