Students in the Franklin School MD program enjoyed a visit to LifeTown, a fully inclusive and accessible center designed to provide hands-on learning experiences. From learning about healthy eating habits and the importance of good oral hygiene to practical life skills such as a trip to Shop Rite, loading the dryer and riding bikes around town, the visit provided a safe space for students to learn and grow in a fun and supportive environment.

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.
