Rep. Roy was thrilled to join Franklin Superintendent Lucas Giguere and Elizabeth Murray, the former Assistant Principal at Jefferson Elementary and now a Math Specialist at the Washington Street School at the State House. They were there to accept the nomination of Jefferson elementary as a Blue Ribbon School, awards by the Department of Education for exceptional academic achievement.
A total of 63 Schools of Recognition were identified throughout the state accountability system for demonstrating high achievement, significant improvement, and/or high growth. Jefferson Elementary was one of six Massachusetts schools to earn a National Blue Ribbon nomination before the US Department of Education discontinued the award in August.
This is a tremendous honor and recognition of the great work being done for Franklin education. Congratulations to everyone who made this happen.
