These ladies from Mrs. Gross's class found an ice sheet that they thought looked like New Hampshire during the Snowmen at Night activities today!


Dear PSS Families,
Tomorrow we will be spending sometime outside participating in activities associated with the story, “Snowmen at Night”. Please make sure your child comes to school prepared to play outside.
Boots, snow pants, mittens, a winter hat and a warm coat are essential.
Thank you,
Sue

Good Afternoon Franklin Families:

Good evening Franklin Families,
This is just a reminder that we have a remote day of school tomorrow in the Franklin School District. We will be delivering double meals tomorrow morning due to the potential storm coming Monday night into Tuesday morning. Our window at the middle school will be open for meal pickups tomorrow until 12:00. Stay tuned for further updates on the incoming storm.

Some more Valentine fun from Miss Cummings' class!

Good Afternoon - Due to the weather, there will be no after school activities this afternoon, 2/9/21, in the Franklin School District.

We were super busy bears last week in kindergarten doing all things gingerbread man related! We read a variety of gingerbread man stories, completed gingerbread man STEM projects, and even went on a scavenger hunt trying to find a gingerbread man who was loose in the school. Here are some images of Miss Kneeland's class on their scavenger hunt. We had so much fun giggling down the halls and reading all the clues that he left us. One student couldn't figure out how he was leaving clues so quickly, so we decided he was probably really good at teleporting! We even thought we could see all his little crumbs throughout the halls.





Happy Friday from Mrs. Gregg! My 3rd grade foxes have been very busy this week. Currently we are in Mission 3 of our math program, Zearn. We are practicing our multiplication facts and learning different strategies to help us decompose those tricky numbers. They are doing a great job and continue to work hard.
Since February is Black History Month I have been reading books about African Americans who were an important part of U.S. history. My kiddos have learned about Harriet Tubman, Martin Luther King Jr., Rosa Parks, Ruby Bridges, and Bessie Colman.
We are continuing to practice our cursive and now that I have taught all of our lower case letters I'm writing our daily morning message in cursive. The kids love being able to read in cursive.
We are looking forward to our Valentine's day activities and celebrations next week!




We thought you would enjoy a snapshot of our first sledding opportunity! Let it snow.


Dear Franklin Families –
With the impending snowstorm this afternoon and into tomorrow, we are cancelling all afternoon activities and athletic events. We will also be having a fully remote day on Tuesday at all three schools. There will be no meal deliveries or pickups for tomorrow.

Dear Franklin Families,
I am reaching out to let you know that I have been informed of a positive case of a staff member at Franklin Middle School. The contact tracing has been conducted and notifications have been completed.

Dear PSS Families,
It is with excitement and gratitude that I send you this invitation. We are delighted to inform you that a Franklin resident has been very busy building student desks for our students. At this time, we have two desks available for adoption.
If you are interested in having a desk at home for your child to support remote learning, please email Miss Pam at pmcdonald@gm.sau18.org.
We believe that we will have additional desks to offer families in the near future. Please do not hesitate to email your name and your child's grade level. We will begin a list and when additional desks become available, we will call you. Please do not wait to communicate your need as we do not know how many desks will be made available to us.
Thank you to our secret donor for providing this wonderful resource to our students and to all of our PSS families for supporting your child during this difficult time in our world.
Thank you,
Sue Blair
