My husband and I love Franklin for it's rich arts education and challenging academic curriculum. Attending an elementary school that offers both has given our daughter a wonderful well-rounded education. The school is the smallest of the Chicago Magnet schools with about 250 students total K-8 and is located in a lovely Chicago neigborhood with a coveted green space for outdoor activities. The dedication of the faculty and staff at FFAC on behalf of all the students is impressive and shows in the school's high marks on the ISAT.

The community at Franklin is what I love the most! Alot of schools today, especially in the public school system, lose that sense of a close-knit family like community. Everyone at FFAC, students, teachers, parents and faculty as always friendly and know everybody's name. It's a great personal touch and I am happy to experience it!

I love that it is a small school with families that get involved. The arts program is a perfect fit for my creative kid. But what is the best are the teachers. We have creative, intelligent and caring teachers. My son loves going to school each day.

I love Franklin because my children are being exposed to drama, art, music and dance on a daily basis in addition to the standard curriculum. As a result, our children are growing up to be well-rounded interesting individuals.
