As a result of illness and injury for our Franklin Flyers we will not be playing JV Basketball on Thursday, December 15th in Elwood and therefore the varsity girls game will begin at 5:30 pm with boys to follow.
Also on Friday, December 16th we will not have JV basketball here in Franklin vs. Deshler. Parent's Night Recognition will begin at 5:30 pm and we ask that parents arrive to line up around 5:15 pm. Varsity Girls Basketball will begin warm-ups immediately following parent's night recognition.
There is a known issue with the Powerschool app, where the app has trouble syncing. To fix this issue you need to remove the app restart the phone/tablet and then reinstall the app. You will need to enter the district code (QRSC) again.

Due to supply issues, and in hopes of preventing the spread of illnesses, Franklin Public School Administrators and School Board have decided to remove the daily lunch salad bar option until we return from Holiday Break on Thursday, January 5th. Students and Staff will still have alternate choices such as a daily sandwich choice or a pre-made chef salad that will be served out of the kitchen window. All meals served will meet state guidelines, including at least 3 of the 5 basic food groups with 1 of those being a fruit or vegetable. Students will have to take what they are served to meet the state requirements of a reimbursable meal but they do not have to eat everything that is on their tray. We are sorry for any inconvenience this will cause but feel this is a step we need to make. If you have any questions please contact the high school office at 308-425-6283.
TeamMates is looking for 3 male mentors for our mentoring program. We mentor youth 3rd-12th grade. If you or someone you know would make a great mentor, please contact Katie or Cortney at 308-425-6283 ext. 19.
