Franklin High School

Franklin High School does not follow thru when there are potential problems. Extra academic help is not advertised or offered when a student is struggling. Teachers are also not well informed of what their own school offers in the way of tutoring. I requested help for my son's dyslexia at the beginning of the year and was told it was not offered, my son has struggled immensely and it was not till February did help "suddenly" appear. My son will not be returning to this high school next year.
