Franklin County Schools

Franklin County is conveniently located just 30 minutes from Raleigh and the Research Triangle, three hours from the mountains and two-and-a-half hours from the beach. So while we’re close to everything, we’re a world away in terms of lifestyle. Here you can enjoy peaceful, quiet living next door to an exciting metropolitan area with numerous cultural, recreation, civic and religious opportunities. Our schools are community schools, offering personalized attention not found in larger school systems. Franklin County also offers affordable housing options in a small-town atmosphere. Come live and work where you’re an individual, not a number.

We envision a school system where the administration, faculty, students, parents, and community work collaboratively to provide a safe, well-structured environment where a broad instructional focus will allow for the highest standards for academic excellence, love of learning, and personal integrity. We strive to organize exemplary elementary, middle and high schools which educate the "whole person". Our vision requires a cooperative relationship based on mutual respect and high expectations that will result in students achieving their unique potential in the pursuit of productive lifestyles.
