🎭 We are seeking volunteers to help the APPLE program host the Missoula Children's Theater Production. Love the theater? This is perfect for you!

🎟️ Carnival Committee. In late spring we host a carnival with games, cotton candy, and cake walk galore. We are seeking around 5 parents to spearhead this event. You will be equipped with a planning binder passed down from former Franklin parents.

🏃‍♀️Who doesn't love a Fun Run! We need lap counters for our largest fundraiser.

Join us after school this Friday for a hot cocoa and candy canes send off to winter break! This year, we’ll have TWO tables, one out front and one out back on the black top to make sure bus riders can partake. (Great idea, Mrs. O’Connor!)❄️
