In order to enhance safety and security for students and staff, students will not be carrying their backpacks or trappers with them during the school year. New lockers have been put in over the summer that will allow for ample space for students to store their belongings during the day.

We will have a grace period during the first two weeks to allow students to adjust to this policy.
Grades 6-12

As summer is coming to an end, Mrs. Lancaster would like students and staff to send in pictures of everyone's summer travels to help remember all the fun that was had. The images will be used to create a video that will be presented on the TV in the lobby and online.

Along with the images, please identify the location.

Send images to: ajlancaster@franklinhigh.com

Enjoy the last few days of summer!
