August 2021 Blog Entries - Franklin City Schools

This summer includes many changes within the realm of technology for the district as we prepare to move into the new high school next school year. While these changes are taking place, we are temporarily rerouting all phone numbers in the district to one primary location. When you dial any phone number for a district building, you will automatically be routed to our central office. You will hear a message with prompts. You can listen to the prompts to reach various departments or you can reach your buildings at that time by calling direct extension numbers. The extension numbers for each of the buildings is below:

FHS: 9377431221

FJHS: 9377431341

AW: 9377431520

GK: 9377431625

HU: 9377431724

WS: 9377431120

PY: 9377431925

We appreciate your patience during this time. This is only temporary while our technology department makes some adjustments to prepare for the move into the new high school and the demolition of Hampton Bennett.
