Welcome to Franklin Community Middle School! It is an honor to serve the nearly 800 students attending our school.
I feel fortunate to have spent my entire professional career working for Franklin Community Schools. After spending the first 15 years teaching mathematics at Custer Baker, I spent 2 1/2 years as Assistant Principal before becoming the Principal in 2017.
I love the community of Franklin and the wonderful teachers, counselors, support staff and administrators I am fortunate to work with each day.
Each year we strive to provide each student with a safe, supportive, and positive learning experience, and encourage you to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have throughout the year. Go Grizzly Cubs!
