HockomockSports,com: "Franklin’s Atkinson Recognized for Work On and Off the Track"
"In August, Providence College announced that Franklin alum Halle Atkinson was the school’s nominee for the prestigious 2023 NCAA Woman of the Year Award. Atkinson, who played soccer and lacrosse at Franklin in addition to running indoor track, was recognized for her success as a runner on PC’s cross-country and track teams as well as her numerous community service efforts.Atkinson is one of 619 female student-athletes that were nominated across all three divisions. The NCAA Woman of the Year Award, according to a release from the school, recognizes “graduating female student-athletes who have exhausted their eligibility and distinguished themselves in academics, athletics, service and leadership throughout their collegiate careers.”During her four years at PC, Atkinson has participated in Adopt a Family, the Thanksgiving Turkey Drive, the Friar 5K Road Race, Girls on the Run Rhode Island, Special Olympics Rhode Island, and the Relay for Life. She has also taken time out to be a tutor and a mentor to younger students by serving as a FriarEdge Family Captain, helping freshman athletes make the transition from high school to college.“It was a little bit of shock,’ Atkinson said when asked about her reaction to the news that she had been nominated. “I was so honored but for a second, when I first read it, I was like wow they really think of me in that high of regard?”Currently going for her MBA in accounting and rehabbing an offseason injury that will keep her from participating in cross-country this fall, Atkinson is ready for a fifth year of indoor and outdoor track. Knowing the talent and commitment level of her teammates made the nomination extra special."

School Committee agonizes over budget cuts, hears an update from Oak St and about the middle school school civics program (audio)
FM #1012 = This is the Franklin Matters radio show, number 1012 in the series.
This session of the radio show shares part of the Franklin, MA School Committee meeting held on Tuesday, June 13, 2023.
The meeting was conducted in a hybrid format: all of the School Committee members, school district personnel along with some of the public were in the Council Chambers. Some members of the public participated via conference bridge.
Brief recap:
Moment of silence to recognize the tragic passing of an FHS graduating senior
During the Superintendent's Report, 2 highlights were shared. (1) a quick overview of the Spanish trip during Spring break. (2) recognition of three FHS outdoor track athletes for their accomplishments at the Meet of Champions
Recognition of Michelle Kingsland Smith retiring for the 2nd time this year with 50 years of education experience. Recognition of Miriam Goodman's retirement as Business Administrator
Middle school civics program provided an update on the process across the three schools and a student presentation from Horace Mann.
The Oak St Elementary team provided and interactive question and answer update on the happenings and progress within the school this year
The additional funds from the Town saves some positions but there are still 26.7 positions removed from the budget, 16 of which were enrollment related. The Committee agonized over the cuts, appreciating the effort and thought that went into trying to minimize the impacts of these. One member said as hard as it is this year, we'll look back to this budget next year as a good one. And that is not something to look forward to
Links to the meeting agenda and associated documents released for this meeting are included in the show notes. The link to my notes taken during the meeting is also provided.
