The Franklin Special School District and the City of Franklin Parks Department will host a ribbon-cutting of the new ballfield complex on Friday, Nov. 4, from 3:00-4:00 PM. The complex, located behind Freedom Middle School, is the result of an interlocal agreement between the FSSD and the City of Franklin for school and community use, with the district receiving priority use.

With the release of accountability data for the 2021-22 school year, the Franklin Special School District is proud to announce that the following schools received Reward School status from the Tennessee Department of Education:

    •    Franklin Elementary

    •    Moore Elementary

    •    Poplar Grove Elementary


The Franklin Special School District is proud to be among the top 10 highest performing school districts in Tennessee based on the 2021-2022 TCAP achievement scores. In looking at the TVAAS growth scores, the FSSD achieved Level 5s in science and social studies, a Level 3 in literacy, and room to grow with a Level 1 in math.

After working diligently for three months to create a budget that included a 4% cost of living increase for all employees with no tax increase, the FSSD Board of Education passed the 2022-2023 budget on July 25.
