Our arrival was extra bright this morning as we kicked off Teacher Appreciation Week!

Students had a blast hand-delivering flowers to their classroom teachers and choosing which other staff members they would surprise!

It was wonderful to see our students arrive with a mission of gratitude to celebrate the staff who help them grow and bloom every day. 💐

A huge thank you to the community volunteers who helped to pass out the flowers this morning! We are so lucky to have a community that helps our students thrive.

Check out some of the blooming joy from this morning! 👇📸

"The One Where Baptiste Paul Visits Franklin"

Wednesday was an unforgettable day filled with storytelling, laughter, and powerful lessons. Baptiste Paul visited Franklin students, and he didn't only share his books; he shared a vision of community and collective power that resonated with students and staff alike.

His message to our students hit home:

"When all of us come together we can do something really big!"

At the end of his day at Franklin, our kindergarteners moved hearts with their surprise performance for Baptiste. We are so grateful to music teacher Mrs. Rachel Linsmeier-Hart for making this beautiful moment possible. 🎶

Thank you, Baptiste, for reminding our young readers that their voices matter and that we are always stronger when we work as one. Franklin Elementary is feeling extra inspired to spark positive change in our community!
