Hello Bulldog Families,

The start of the school year has been amazing!   The students have made a wonderful transition back to school.   A huge “Thank You” to the parents for all you do to help make the beginning of school a great experience.  Mid-term is September 12th.  Parent-Teacher Conferences will be held on Thursday, October 18th.  Your child’s teacher will contact you if you haven’t already signed up for a time to meet with her.  Parent-Teacher Conferences are an imperative part of your child’s education.   The first PTO meeting will be held on Wednesday, September 12th at 6:00 in the school library.  I encourage all families to attend and be active in the PTO.  New Franklin PTO provides support for many of our activities, supplies and field trips.  It takes everyone for our school to be successful.  Also, I would like to say thanks to all of the parents who are making morning drop off and dismissal run smoothly.  Please be sure to pull close to the curb and have your child exit the car from the curb side.  Thanks for helping keep our students safe.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me or stop by my office if you have any questions or concerns.
