The Franklin Borough Board of Education on Jan. 12 accepted an HIB (Harassment, Intimidation and Bullying) finding for case HIB 25-26-02 that had been presented in executive session at the Dec. 8, 2025 meeting.
The board also approved the 2026–27 school year calendar (Attachment 3) and voted to approve the 2025–26 Chronic Absenteeism Corrective Action Plan (Attachment 4). The calendar and the corrective action plan were presented by the principal as part of the Education Committee’s agenda and adopted by vote.
