The Franklin PTA has worked hard to streamline the PTA fundraising schedule and to limit our “ask” for donations. The PTA tries to be efficient with your dollars and to appropriately scrutinize all purchases & requests. The PTA is committed to full transparency by discussing the budget and expenses at our PTA meetings.
We appreciate everyone’s support and look forward to continued success in the years to come!

We are always open to ideas/feedback/involvement! Please email the PTA Board at info@franklinpta.com. Or come to a PTA Meeting to ask questions or learn more. Please share your thoughts and your time to make Franklin a strong school and community.

Your incredibly generous donations - including your time and talent - are like pieces of a puzzle. Every dollar and hour come together to complete a picture of community, support, and enrichment for our students.
