6/28/2023
Franklin academy is well rounded prestigious public charter school. The academics and social community are tight knit. However, the school provides a well balanced prep ready education for future endeavors.
6/5/2022
This school tends to be more academically challenging than other public schools, depending on which classes are taken by the student. The majority of the teachers are incredibly open and caring when it comes to a students health and future career. The amount of free tutoring that my math teacher provided most likely saved my gpa. There is a wide variety of subjects to take. The music and arts program is especially excellent.
1/3/2021
Good education and an overall great experience. Small class sizes and good options for electives and AP/Honors. Extracurricular is a plus.

6/17/2023
Inexperienced staff with little to no training in subject area or about neurodivergence. Few staff trained in special education including principal. Some staff have no teaching license. Lots of staff turnover. A staff a month quit in 2022-2023 school year. Haven’t had a returning math teacher in fiv...

Don't get me wrong. This school definitely prepares for college. But so do other schools in this area. This school has almost zero diversity, and that is present in the student body, staff, and faculty. The administration has discriminated against my family multiple times, and refused to clearly com...
