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.

My experience at franklinton high school was pretty warped i spent a lot of time vaping in the bathroom skipping class and just being a delinquent but whenever I decided to lock in and actually try my best in school I realized it was a nice small school to be at and even though it wasn't the best it could've been way worse.

Franklinton High School is a very diverse school with many different cultures expressed by many different people. Most of the staff is good however there are a handful of teachers who clearly do not care about students and are there to do only what is need, the bare minimum. The school is pretty safe from outsiders, although quite a few fights do break out over the school year.

I like going to Franklinton High School because everyone there is really accepting, all the teachers love to help you when you are struggling with an assignment, and the students are really nice and we love making new friends everyday and the diversity at this school is really accepting.

The building is nice and new, but they really need some better qualified teachers. When a teacher is able to nap during class and then continually have the...
