Student Achievement 21
At its October 25 board meeting, the Franklin Board of Education honored students for achievement. Franklin City Schools established the Student Achievement Award in 2001; hundreds of students have been honored since its inception. Student Achievement Committee members include parents, community residents, board members, administrators, and students; they meet during the school year to evaluate nominations which may be submitted by students, teachers, administrators, or community members. Students unable to attend the board meeting received their certificates later.
Award criteria and the nomination form may be found on the district website: www.franklincityschools.com under Departments > Curriculum > Student Achievement.
