BIG THANKS to everyone who helped with our annual Harvest Hoedown! It's a fun tradition and a great way for our students to celebrate their hard work during the first trimester of the school year. We couldn't pull it off without all of the help and we appreciate all of you!
Franklin Families,
Hy-Vee is offering meal assistance to families. Please see below for more details. If your family is in need of support during this time, please reach out to us at Franklin. We're connected to quite a few community resources and are happy to help out!
From Nov. 3-7, every Hy-Vee store with hot food service will provide a free kids meal to those ages 12 and under from 4-7 p.m. The same meal will be available to everyone else for $3 and will be offered for dine in or to go. To follow is the menu that will be offered at each participating location:
• Monday, Nov. 3: Baked Potato with Pulled Pork
• Tuesday, Nov. 4: Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, Salad and Garlic Bread
• Wednesday, Nov. 5: Chicken and Noodles with Mashed Potatoes
• Thursday, Nov. 6: Chili and a Cinnamon Roll

During the coming weeks, Hy-Vee will also be sharing on its social media channels recipes that families can make for $3 or less a serving. These meals will include products featured in Hy-Vee’s weekly ads.
Customers who wish to help their local food pantries can do so at Hy-Vee. Starting today, Hy-Vee stores will offer $5 and $10 food bank donation bundles for customers to purchase. The bags will include items most needed by food pantries, including canned vegetables, pasta sauce, canned proteins and cereal. Stores will deliver any purchased bags to their local food pantry daily to help manage the projected increase in need.

Fall Family Night is tomorrow! We're looking forward to seeing lots of our families!

Franklin Families,
In an effort to be good neighbors to the folks who live around Franklin, we ask that you please not block any driveways when lining up for drop off or pick up. We’ve had several issues with our neighbors not being able to get into or out of their driveways due to parents blocking them and refusing to move. We realize parking is limited but please be courteous to the people who live around our school. Thank you!
These amazing students were recognized by their teachers for doing an outstanding job of demonstrating our character trait of the month: RESPONSIBILITY!
