OTHER THINGS FUNDED BY PTC

Guest Speakers will be invited to our PTC meetings to discuss issues important to our Franklin families. Check the monthly newsletter for upcoming topics.

Cheshire Smiles ~ Each year many Franklin students receive free dental screening and treatments.  The PTC provides money for students who are unable to pay for treatment.

Staff Appreciation Day ~ This is a day in May set aside to honor the Franklin staff and teachers with a special luncheon provided by the PTC.

Teacher Gifts ~ When financially possible, the PTC provides each teacher/classroom with funds at the beginning of the school year, to use for classroom needs and wants not normally covered in their budget. Teachers may use this gift however they wish – for the class as a whole, or for each individual student.
