New Franklin R-1 Schools

Announcement 10.6.2025

Earlier today, a non-threatening incident occurred at school that required a response from local law enforcement. Police were called out of an abundance of caution, and the situation was handled quickly and appropriately. At no time were students or staff in danger.

We want to assure our families that all students and staff are safe, and classes have continued as normal. We appreciate the quick response and support from our local Sheriff's department and thank our school community for their understanding and cooperation.

The safety of our students and staff is always our top priority.

A big thank you to Lilly’s Cantina food truck for serving up such amazing food for our staff during today’s professional development!

A huge thank you to Mrs. Shadwick for leading today’s professional development! Your energy, knowledge, and practical strategies made the day both engaging and meaningful. We appreciate the time and effort you put into helping us grow as educators!
