New Family Information

Kindergarten Night:	Kindergarten Night is held every school year in May. It is a general information night about the Franklin Kindergarten program. This evening gives incoming kindergarten families an idea of what you can expect during the Kindergarten year.
Back to School Night:	Back to School Night is held each year during the second week of school. On this night, parents meet with their child's teacher and find out what they can expect for the school year.
Kindergarten Welcome Interviews:	Kindergarten Welcome Interviews are optional, but encouraged and are held on two school days in May.
