the only good thing about this school is students you befriend and even then its just constant drama and theyre really rude. teachers are always super hit or miss but ALL the math teachers are RUDE INSULT STUDENTS & suck at keeping up with grades and keeping students updated meanwhile the parents are always informed of incorrect information. i hate this school and I cant wait till I graduate.

This is the worst school you could ever enroll your kid into. Not only the staff is very rude to students and parents but also the minority of the teachers are nice.
You can report your problems as many times as you can and they won't do anything.
And since they don't want their reputation ruined they hide the Google reviews and why? Because the school sucks, they will ruin your kids education path.
Please enroll your kid in Coronado, premier, Bowie somewhere else but here.

Responsibility, Leadership, and Dedication are a few the many great attributes taught and demonstrated. "Lead" by example is what Franklin has instilled in my children's education!

The Administration,Teachers, along with the office staff-- set high standards and protocols for the students attending to follow, learn from and set the necessary foundation to succeed in their educational goals and endeavors!

This is the "high light" Franklin High School. My child received 100% plus support from the Administrators, Counselors, and Teachers/Coaches to assist him with differentiating his learning style in order to help him succeed. The Fine Arts Teachers Art and Music gave him a creative outlet that helped build his confidence. The Math, English, and History departments set high standards and taught very effectively to create the foundation that was necessary for his learning style to go on to College. The "GO" Center is a very crucial element in getting kids to the next level!

Both of my children have had very positive support if the matter were to arise. (Which was not too often, the Teachers were supportive and lead students were also very supportive in this matter. ) My children felt happy and safe at Franklin High School .

Excellent Experience! The Administrators, Counselors, Teachers/ Coaches, Office Staff, and School mentors are very positive and encourage each and every student to succeed in their Plan toward graduation and beyond. There are many wonderful opportunities for each student to build upon. The Teachers and Administrators are very supportive, and if you have questions they are always come through with a solution. Thank you for devoting your time to Teaching my Children!

Franklin constantly sends inane emails to parents that are most of the time false. Teachers do not manage classwork/work done by students appropriately. Most teachers do not inform students of work needed to be done if the student was absent not even through email. The only positive thing about this school is that it is close to home.
