Farmers Market: Smalley's Cookies
One of my visits to the Farmer's Market I stopped by the tent to talk with the folks at Smalley's Cookies. The Farmer's Market is open today from noon to 6:00 PM.

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.
