The chief function of the Board of Education is policy-making in nature. The Board formulates and adopts written policies regarding personnel, administration of pupil personnel, educational programs and instructional materials, facilities and equipment, finances, and public relations for the quality education of the youth of the Franklin Local School District. The Board, functioning within the framework of laws, court decisions, Attorney General opinions, and similar mandates from the state and national levels of government, and recognizing the authority of the State, fulfills its mission as the governing body of the School District.

We understand that high performing schools pay attention to the whole child to improve the quality of life for our students and community members.
