I went to FHS for my freshman year. While i was there i was viciously hate crimed mentally and nearly physically. I brought this to the officials who TOLD US THAT WE COULD TRUST THEM and they made me look like the person to blame. Because I a member of the LGBTQ have mental issues and cannot make connections, tell that to the other students who heard the slur being thrown at me. Thanks for the life lessons, i certainly didn’t learn anything else at this school! I went from a B student at this school to an A student at another (after i had to transfer due to the lack of support)! I hope to God that no other member of the LGBTQ has to go through what i did at FHS, it’s a scary thought for me. Students should feel trust in their teachers, not fear. Not fear that the teacher will stab you in the back and tell you are a bully for taking someone else’s words. I can’t describe how much of an awful time i had here, i just hope if anyone reads this they listen to me.

We moved to the Jefferson district prior to having children. Once we had kids and looked to move to a larger home, we didn't even consider moving to another part of Franklin. The school has the nicest campus in town, the students all know each other, the administration makes it a point to know each student (the one negative comment from 2014 seems odd, and that principle has since left), and the communication with parents and partnership is amazing. They often look for feedback from families, champion kind and respectful behavior from their students, and have a great staff of teachers who really work as partners with their students' families.

Not a safe school, many threats to children from other students where the school fails to discipline the offender appropriately.
