The opening of the new Franklin High School this fall will enable the Franklin Public School system to pursue the ambitious goal of offering its students the “premier high school science program in Massachusetts” according to Peter Light, Principal of the Franklin High School. Mr. Light recently alluded to this exciting prospect at an orientation held at the old high school for incoming 8th grade students and parents.

"It came on really fast"

Milford Daily News recaps the storm from the surrounding area DPW perspectives:

Franklin DPW Director Robert Cantoreggi said the circumstances of the storm were positive. 

"The timing was pretty good - most people knew about the storm, and a lot of people stayed off the roads," he said, adding that school cancellations helped the situation. 

Many directors said they were concerned about the salt supply for the storm, but they all said their stores were adequate. 

"We were running low earlier, but there was a lull and we were able to fill up our supplies," said Bellingham DPW Director Donald DiMartino. 

Cantoreggi said Franklin was set on salt supplies, but noted that the season has been hard on vendors.
