    The teachers and staff are amazing. You can tell that the majority of the teachers in the schools truly care about the students and want them to succeed. The curriculum being taught includes things that will help students later in life. It is a benefit that students are able to participate in many different opportunities through the schools, like all of the amazing extracurriculars. The students also benefit when they get to Franklin High School, where they get to choose some of their classes. Some things that the school district could improve include, discipline, and rule-setting for the students, especially in Forest Park Middle School. The school district could also increase more funding for band and other school clubs. Besides those few things, the school district is overall a great place to go to school and get a great education.

    It is very bitter sweet going into my Senior year at Franklin High School. It has given me countless opportunities to explore different subject areas to find out what I am passionate about. It is also guaranteed that you will build relationships with your teachers. One thing that we are working on as a school is participation and showing our school spirit. It is something that we continue to improve on each year. Overall FHS has been a fantastic experience!
    My experience at Franklin Public Schools has been very good because it provided me with a great education with teachers who care about my success. Whenever I need help or am struggling, I always know that I can ask questions and ask for support from my teachers. I have also met really kind, loving, caring, supportive, and smart friends that I wouldn't have been able to meet if I went to a different school. At this school, I have joined tennis for all four years and I was able to learn the meaning of teamwork, cooperation, communication, and leadership. I met even more people through this sport and had friends that were passionate about tennis just like me. Also during my junior year, I was eligible for the National Honors Society and I have done many hours of volunteer work. As it is almost the second semester of my senior year, I would say that I had a pleasant four years here. From my freshmen year to now I believe that I have grown into a very wise adult.
