What Sets
Franklin Apart
At Franklin we serve exceptional students. They are wired a bit differently, so we are, too. We have learned to not just think outside the box, but to discard the box entirely. Instead we focus on ingenuity and innovation combined with community and compassion. The result is a place where we meet students where they are instead of making them fit in a preconceived paradigm. We give them the chance to learn from mistakes instead of getting bogged down by failure.
As a boarding school for students in grades 8 through 12, plus post-graduates, we practice social interactions all day long. From the classroom to the dining hall. In club meetings and dorm rooms. With peers and with faculty. Our students develop an understanding of who they are and an ability to become enthusiastic life-long learners and to advocate for themselves. These skills last a lifetime.
Come See Franklin for Yourself
The students who thrive at Franklin are unique and we are, too! The best way to experience us is to visit in person or to attend an event. Our students and faculty welcome visitors to experience what belonging really looks like.
We Learn Differently
Franklin knows that our students learn in distinctive ways. So we broke the traditional mold. Typical subjects are presented in entirely new ways with a super-serving of the all important soft skills woven in throughout each class. Plus, these young people do best when they are interested (who doesn’t?). So practical skills are reinforced while exploring true passions in cross-disciplinary, collaborative electives.
Add to that our unconventional mindset. We are a school where getting stuck on a problem or making a mistake is a good thing — providing a chance to build perseverance and promote meaningful learning. Lather, rinse, repeat until failure is no longer scary and students experience success more often. Read more.

This is as important as any educational goal. Student Life.
