Good evening Franklin Families,
Here are your reminders and updates.

Reminders:

1. This is the last week of school before the students are on a two week break.

Updates:

1. Our hat drive from Family Night collected 160 hats. The majority will be donated to the 519 Community Collective. but a few bins of hats have been created for the students at Franklin for when needed as well. Thank you to all families, staff and students who collected and donated hats.

2. Just over 2100 dollars was raised from Family night. Thank you to those who attended. More information will be coming out on how these School Generated Funds will be distributed.

3. Book Fair was a great success with over $10,000 in gross sales meaning that $2,200 comes back to Franklin. Funds will be used for literary/student supports.

4. There is a Board Meeting this Monday evening starting at 7 pm. Here is the link for you: https://www.youtube.com/c/WRDSBVideo/live

Quote of the Day:

From the Book, The Kindness Advantage,

“Why Kindness…..because it leads to a lot of other good things like compassion, happiness, future success, better relationships, improved self-esteem, and good mental and physical health.” (D. Atkins and A. Salzhauer)
