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.

The administration is not the best they let bullying happen till you are focused on taking matters into your own hands. They wait till something happens to do anything.

Franklin was a very fun high school that has a lot of opportunities. I was able to take a variety of classes that would help me get ready and practice what I want to do for my future. Only part that I struggled with was being prepared for certain classes. Everyone that went to Franklin mainly went to the same middle school but I didn't. So i wasn't fully prepared I wasn't taught things they learned in middle school so it was harder to understand.

Franklin High School has overall been decent. The teachers are mostly good and there are definitely a couple really good ones that make school fun. I'd say most people here have friends and there are different types of people for everyone. This school is very white. There are also many conservative people who are racist or homophobic.

Racism will exist at a school that is predominantly white. Stop sending your brown/black kids at schools where the only make up a small percentage.

Terrible school. One of the worst my child has ever attended. My family and I just moved here mid summer, hoping there would be a new start for us and an accepting and kind community. Instead, we were faced with multiple difficulties including from the school. When there is an issue, nothing is done...
