"Our award-winning theater crew is producing yet another thrilling play, Fahrenheit 451, Wednesday and Thursday of this week, December 20th and 21st, respectively. Tickets can be bought at the door, $12 for adults and $5 for students.
Every year, sophomores read the novel behind the play, Fahrenheit 451, in their English classes. This adaptation takes this plot and brings it to the stage here at Franklin High. The complex plot, in combination with familiar faces of FHS and the intricate set, create a play experience you won’t want to miss. With leads such as Kenny Bonilla as Guy Montag, Dan Schratz as Fire Chief Beatty, and Chloe Selznick as Mildred Montag, the character dynamic is set to wow audience members."

A great many words that have had relevant meaning in society have fallen out of favor but none so much as the R-word.
The students of Best Buddies have been advocating a campaign to end the use of this word. One of the advisors of Best Buddies, Mrs. Connolly, made claims that some videos supporting this campaign would be released, but no date of release has been revealed.

On Thursday, March 13th – Franklin High School’s Science National Honors Society (SNHS) chapter hosted an exposition of intro-level science experiments and demonstrations for Franklin’s elementary and middle school students. Students and their parents toured Thursday’s “Science Night” in throngs, enjoying the night’s demonstrations and activities with smiles of wonder and fascination.
Serenaded by string instruments as they ascended up to the second and third floors, participants were directed to the four science classrooms where the event took place. Heading towards the biology lab with his parent, one younger participant compared the string ensemble to “an orchestra”.
