At Franklin, we strive to provide each student with exactly the right type of instruction- from intervention classes to honors classes. We honor the whole child and offer a wide variety of academic classes and extracurricular experiences.
Definitely not the best. Teachers teach just by standing up and talking to us, then handing out worksheets. Having a separate class for writing is completely pointless because we just do the same things over and over again all three years, but at least that's not the school's fault. Classes are bad and always being disrupted - it's loud and hard to learn anything. A lot of teachers say they will punish someone and then never do, so the students never behave. Health is the worst class ever, but so is PE. I'm in 8th grade at the moment, going to high school next year, and though I'm in honors reading and math I feel wholly unprepared for high school (especially math). Teachers may not be the best, but they are dedicated and will stay after school with you to help if you need it. Still, bottom line? Not great.
