Please make sure your child wears old clothes or brings a change of clothes, as the dye may stain and we will not be able to provide extra clothing for everyone.
We’re looking forward to a colorful and fun-filled day for our students!



Thank you so much for your continued support and commitment to students’ creative development this year! We’ve loved teaching your students and are excited to wrap up the year with one more awesome lesson.
As summer approaches, we’re once again offering families the opportunity to purchase an ArtCart Sketch Box, filled with creative learning activities and supplies to keep kids making art all summer long.
School pick-up orders must be submitted by the end of this week. Orders placed after this week will be shipped directly to homes.
Last year, over 500 students participated, and we can’t wait for another summer of art-making success!
Good luck with testing this week, and thank you again. We look forward to seeing you all next yea

Volunteers are needed this Friday for our K-5 Tie Dye Day! Contact the school or stop by the office to sign-up.

We’ve attached staff “favorites” lists to help families who would like to show appreciation in a personal way and let our teachers and staff know how much they mean. A kind note, a small gesture, or a heartfelt thank you can go a long way! (If the link doesn't work, please let us know and we will try again.)
At Franklin, we believe together we SOAR! 🦅💙💛 Help us make this a fun and uplifting week for the incredible staff who support our students every day.

Now, our SOAR Students of the Week will receive a token to pick out their very own book as part of their reward—how awesome is that?!
We made sure to celebrate all of our SOAR students from earlier this year by letting them grab their books too. So many smiles, so much excitement, and a whole lot of reading ahead! 💙📖


Join us on Thursday, April 2, as Franklin Elementary comes together to support Autism Awareness & Acceptance Day by wearing BLUE!
This is a special opportunity for our staff and students to show love, understanding, and support for individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD).
Why it matters:
✨ Autism affects 1 in 36 children, meaning many of our students, friends, and families are directly impacted.
✨ Students with autism bring unique strengths—creativity, attention to detail, honesty, and different ways of thinking that enrich our school community.
✨ Awareness leads to acceptance, and acceptance creates a school where every child feels valued, included, and supported.
✨ Small acts of kindness and understanding can make a BIG difference in a child’s confidence and success.
Let’s show our Franklin pride by wearing blue and continuing to build a school where everyone belongs. 💙

Franklin Falcons, this Friday is a BIG DAY--It's National Scribble Day!!
We'll be celebrating Scribble Spot in fun ways throughout the entire day, AND students can come to school dressed as Scribble Spot!
The excitement doesn't stop there!
The class with the best attendance for the week will earn the chance to "scribble" Ms. Sloan with silly string!
Millie and Ainsley will get to pie Ms. Carpenter as their reward for completing Finn's Mission for the Kids Heart Challenge!
We will also finally recognize our high selllers and winners from the chocolate fundraiser, who will have the opportunity to pie or silly string Mr. McIntyre!
It's going to be a fun-filled day you won't want to miss!
