Franklin’s mission is to inspire and equip every student to become a life-long learner and positive contributor to society through high expectations and rigorous academics, engaged and individualized instruction, shared Franklin values, and a strong and supportive community.

Franklin School is committed to providing students with exemplary instruction designed to educate the whole child so that he/she may become a productive member of the community. We nurture intellectual curiosity, collaborative and critical thinking, and effective communication. Instruction is aimed at supporting each student's ability to achieve at the highest levels. We encourage all members of the community to contribute to the support of student learning and to act as collaborative partners in the education of our children. Students are guided in the exploration of their intellectual, artistic, technological, physical, social, and character development. Our rigorous, standards-based instructional program is geared toward enabling all students to meet the challenges of the future with confidence and compassion.
