Franklin Elementary School

My son goes to Franklin school and my wife and I are very happy with the school, teachers, activities, etc. As an example, the school and PTA set up a chess club which my son joined and enjoyed, meeting new friends and playing against other Summit schools. The teachers also encourage communications outside classrooms. My son likes math tricks and as a 2nd grader his teachers arranged for him to show to 3rd graders since some tricks involvesd multiplications/divisions. He also borrowed and read a lot of books from the school's library.

I am a college student majoring in elementary education. I went to this school to do observations required for one of my classes. I was really blown away by how wonderful this school was. The children were learning with great success and the teachers were simply amazing. I was also impressed with the many resources the school had, and the way computer technology was used in the classroom.

Franklin is as good as any private school. It has abundant resources, wonderful integration of technology into teaching, a super phys. ed, art and music program. The teachers are generally good, although some are better than others.

Wonderful neighborhood school with incredibly involved parents. My son has had a very positive kindergarten experience there.
