Franklin School Student Population Drops

The Franklin Public Schools start the year with 121 less students than one year ago.  The totals by level of school are shown for comparison in the table below.


2008 2009 Diff
Elementary 3091 2998 -93
Middle School 1524 1478 -46
High School 1622 1640 18
 Totals
6237 6116 -121


That there are less students riding the bus shouldn't be a surprise. That the 'bus loss' number is greater than the 'student loss' number likely reflects something of the economic situation and the choices that parents have made.
