Franklin Elementary School

had a wonderful experience completing my practicum at this school. My mentor teacher, Ms. Henley, was incredibly supportive, welcoming, and knowledgeable. She took the time to guide me through observations, lesson planning, and teaching opportunities, and I learned so much from being in her classroom. The students were engaged and cared for, and it was clear how dedicated the staff is to creating a positive learning environment. I’m very thankful for the opportunity and highly recommend this school to families and future educators alike.

Some of the teachers here are really wonderful however others don't treat the children very good at all. I've noticed that some of the teachers here talk down to the kids and don't treat them with kindness at all. Seems as though they very much have the mentality that children should be seen and not heard. My kids complained on several occasions that the teachers would raise their voice without reason, sometimes so loud they explained being frightened by certain teachers. Also I had called and requested my child be seen by the school counselor and my daughter said they never followed up. The bullying at this school is not taken seriously at all and often times is brushed off and the bullied kids walk away from situations feeling like they are at fault. I can't wait for the year to end to not have anything else to do with this school.

My experience with this school was a nightmare, the principal acts like a white savior and the front desk ladies are incredibly incompetent. The teachers are so evil, they don’t care about their safety, and kids with learning disabilities are pushed asides either no real help.

I must say that the drop off feels very unsafe to be having elementary kids. Staff does their best to address this, but it still doesn't remove my fear fro my Kindergartner. Unfortunately my kid hates school now and has had many issues making friends and opening up about her days in school. Her teacher does do her best but i feel maybe she has too many kids assigned to her for a kindergartner teacher. They do address my daughters second language barrier and she has been able to overcome it and catch up with her class. The environment does not feel great for my kid either. Only some of the playgrounds have shade.

Mi experiencia ah sido muy buena, muy buenos maestros! Enseñan muy bien y el ambiente es muy bueno!

Terrible school. Getting a meeting with the principal is so hard, you have better luck winning the lottery than to get an appointment with arbo. She allows bullying, said kindergarten students dont deserve a graduation ceremony because they haven’t accomplished anything and that her daughters didn’t have a ceremony and became outstanding adults. A substitute teacher spanked a kindergarten student and she allowed it, didn’t do anything about it and still allowed the sub to come back to sub for the same teacher! Getting the teachers to respond is sooooo hard unless they need something (donations)

Robson will call the police on your children for for no reason and also not call u to tell you and punish your child the whole day. Also the police will call u later to tell u about it even tho they did not and the police will let u know they should not have called and your child did nothing wrong. Most of the teachers and staff at this school are first year staff with no experience and a lack of knowledge. keep your loved ones away.
