IMMEDIATE RELEASE
The Franklin City Schools Board of Education has announced tentative hours of operation for the district’s classroom buildings for the 2024-25 school year. Start and end times may have to be adjusted slightly as transportation routes and times are finalized. We ask that you be flexible with bus schedules for the elementary schools, since we have grade-level buildings for the first time. Building principals will use ParentSquare to notify parents when buses leave the buildings until we get routines established. More specific information about bussing related to routes will follow soon.
The first day of school for students in grades 1-12 is Monday, August 19. Supply lists are available on the district website under each building’s page.
