Franklin Elementary School -

Franklin School: In Mrs. Janz's enrichment after-school club, The Wellness Lab, students came up with the idea to start a kindness chain. Staff and students completed links and over the last two months, the club worked to put the chain together and celebrate all the kind things that have been happening at Franklin School. The chain reached 162 links and is being proudly displayed at our Spring Concert.
