There’s a colorful new addition to the Franklin blacktop!  Last week a dedicated group of parents spent the day painting a large USA Map behind the school.  The map can be used for numerous recess games and learning opportunities as the children can jump from state to state.  Ask your child if they’ve seen it!  We’d like to thank Adrian Tricker (and his sons), Paula Rush, Glyne Chapman (and his daughter), Christie Engel, Monica Fienemann, Sheila Cheney, and our 8th grade volunteers for all their hard work to make this possible.
