Mission Statement
The Franklin Public Schools, in collaboration
with the community, will cultivate each student's
intellectual, social, emotional and physical
potential through rigorous academic inquiry and
informed problem solving skills within a safe,
nurturing and respectful environment.
Core Values
Student Achievement
All students are entitled to academic excellence, appropriate facilities and quality
materials and instruction.
School Climate
Through our words and our actions, we create a culture of civility, thoughtfulness,
appreciation and approachability.
The district’s analysis of the 2009 MCAS data continues to identify the Franklin Public School System as a “high
performance” district. This continues to be an important milestone for the district as the target scores for ELA
(85.4 to 90.2) and Mathematics (76.5 to 84.3) have again been increased in the “race to the top” score of 90-100 CPI
points reflective of advanced/proficient performance.
AGGREGATE:
Students in the aggregate (all students) continue to out perform the state on the same tests in English Language
Arts (ELA), Mathematics, and Science/Technology Engineering (STE).
Performance on all district grade level tests, including three Long Composition administrations in grades 4, 7,
and 10, reflect a “High” (80-89.9) or “Very High” (90-100) performance rating, outperforming the state in CPI
points on every test and by at least one performance level on all but three tests (higher CPI in grade 3, 8 and 10
ELA, same performance level of High or Very High).
The 9th and 10th grade STE Biology test identified a Very High CPI (92.0), outperforming the state by one
performance rating.
SUBGROUPS:
All Special Education subgroups in grades 3-10 outperformed comparable state subgroups in each of the subject
tests. On two tests (grades 3 Reading and Math) students scored in the same performance category as the state.
This may in part be due to students’ first experience in taking the state tests. On all other tests, this subgroup
scored 1 to 2 performance ratings above that of the state.
All Low Income subgroups outperformed comparable state subgroups in each tested area as identified by either
a higher CPI score or higher performance rating.
83% of ALL Franklin students performed at the Advanced/Proficient Levels in ELA compared to 67% across the
state.
74% of ALL Franklin students performed at the Advanced/Proficient levels in Mathematics compared to 57%
across the state.
English Language Arts AYP Data for 2009 – Very High – On Target (improved within target range)
Franklin met the AYP expectations in the aggregate and Low Income subgroup in ELA in grades 3-5. However,
the special education subgroup in grades 3-5 did not meet AYP expectations for ELA.
The district met AYP expectations in the aggregate and all subgroups in ELA in grades 6-8.
In grades 9-12, Franklin met AYP expectations in the aggregate but did not meet AYP expectations for ELA in
the Special Education subgroup.
Mathematics AYP Data for 2009 – High – No Change (gain was equivalent to baseline plus or minus the target
range)
Franklin met the AYP expectations in the aggregate in Mathematics in grades 3-5. However the district did not
meet AYP subgroup expectations at this level.
The district met AYP expectations in the aggregate in Mathematics in grades 6-8 but did not meet AYP
expectations in Special Education or Low Income subgroups in grades 6-8 for Mathematics.
Franklin met AYP expectations in Mathematics in the aggregate in grades 9-12. AYP expectations in
Mathematics for the Special Education subgroup were not met.

The commitment to educate our children is a commitment that the residents of Franklin have
long supported. Horace Mann, the father of public education and integral to Franklin’s historical
legacy stated, “Education then, beyond all devices of human origin, is the equalizer of conditions
of men, the great balance wheel of the social machinery”.
The School Committee, administration and staff developed a fiscally responsible budget that
promotes student achievement, protects core programs and is respectful of the current economic
climate. The FY 2011 proposed budget requests a 3.89% increase to maintain level services. We
have used grants, stimulus and revolving funds to reduce the budget gap and we are requesting
what we needed to maintain the program we currently have in place for our students.
Q. What has the School Committee and administration done to budget in a fiscally
conservative manner?
Through partnerships we have co-written grants to help offset a variety of costs. We have
engaged with the Town to implement a number of energy savings through our efforts to “Go
Green”. Solar panels will be constructed on Parmenter Elementary school to reduce energy costs.
Water gardens have been constructed at Franklin High School and one will be established at
Parmenter also. The Town and School Department have consolidated facilities and technology
services to reduce costs. The School Department has been implementing a variety on online
services for employees to reduce personnel costs and to limit paper consumption. Over the last
ten years we have significantly reduced and eliminated programs and positions while meeting
higher educational standards and accountability requirements as established by federal and state
regulations.
Q. What other federal and state funds support the operating budget?
Franklin actively seeks federal and state grants to supplement the operational budget. During FY
2010 Franklin received $2,784,792 in grant funds to provide additional staffing and supplemental
services to meet the needs of students.
Q. What are some other sources of financial support for the Franklin Public Schools?
The district receives significant financial support from the community. Grants from the Franklin
Education Foundation support teachers directly. Other parent and community sponsored groups
help support our programs. The Music Boosters, all the Athletic booster clubs, and the Parent
Communication Councils (PCC) support the mission and vision of the school district. Without
their financial support many of our needs would go unmet.
Class sizes will remain reasonable. While some classes will be outside of the School
Committee’s recommended guidelines, many will be within these guidelines. Class size will be
reviewed and intra-district reallocation of positions will be implemented to minimize inequities
in class size
The FY 2011 budget does not require any increases to fees, nor does it require new fees to be
implemented.
Q. How does per pupil spending in Franklin compare with spending in other
Massachusetts communities?
A Franklin Public School education is a tremendous value when you compare achievement
results with the local cost to taxpayers. Based on data released by the Massachusetts Department
of Elementary and Secondary Education Office of Finance, as of FY 2009 Franklin's per pupil
expenditures are $10,010 while the state average is $13,060.

Academic Vision - In order for Franklin High School students to become responsible and passionate learners, we expect them to be
able to communicate effectively through listening, speaking, writing and a variety of media and techniques; and creating and
performing. Read critically with understanding. Analyze and solve problems effectively by working collaboratively, identifying,
clarifying and describing issues/problems, locating, organizing and processing information from various sources, utilizing thinking
skills and reasoning strategies and creating, testing and justifying solutions and conclusions; and make interdisciplinary connections
through observing and understanding connections within and between disciplines and articulating and demonstrating these
connections. Demonstrate knowledge and skills to promote the health, safety and well-being of oneself and others.
Social and Civic Vision - In order to help prepare our students to be contributors to our democratic society and an interdependent
world, we expect them to have respect for themselves and others, be open minded and compassionate, make informed decisions and
accept responsibility for them, be involved in school and community activities, develop and cultivate knowledge of their physical,
emotional and social well-being, utilize effective problem solving strategies to resolve social and emotional issues, be responsible
citizens and be ambassadors of the school and the community
School Mission: Franklin High School exists as a covenant among students, parents, staff and community. This collaboration
promotes a rigorous, safe and nurturing environment in which students are responsible and passionate learners. In an atmosphere of
equality, acceptance and respect, students prepare to contribute to our democratic society and an interdependent world.
