Franklin County Schools '❤️ Our People For the eighth time in the past nine years, and the second year in a row, FCS employees will be receiving a 4% pay increase. Our Superintendent and Board members have worked tirelessly to elevate Franklin County Schools from 90th to 26th in the state for teacher pay. This 4% pay increase for all employees is in addition to the approximate 1% step increase, supplementing the 4% raise from 2024 and the 2% raises provided in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2021, 2022, & 2023. A special thank you to our board for their unwavering support and dedication. #FCSYes | #OneTeamFCS

Dear Franklin County Families, We want to make you aware of a concerning social media trend that encourages students to intentionally damage their school-issued Chromebooks by attempting to short out the charging ports. In some cases across the country this trend has led to injury and even caused electrical and fire damage to homes. Please take a moment to speak with your child about the serious dangers of participating in these types of online trends. Their safety—and the safety of our students, staff, and families—is our number one priority. Thank you for your continued support in helping us keep our school community safe. #OneTeamFCS

🦅🌟Staff Spotlight: Celebrating Ms. Bessie Hunt🌟🦅 Franklin County High School is fortunate to have an educator who goes above and beyond not only in the classroom but in shaping the school’s culture of success. Ms. Bessie Hunt, a dedicated Science teacher, recently took the initiative to organize the entire Success Celebration to kick off KSA testing—an event designed to uplift, encourage, and motivate students as they prepare for this important milestone. Ms. Hunt’s leadership and enthusiasm were the driving force behind a celebration that brought students, staff, and the school community together. Her ability to foster excitement and school spirit is just one of the many reasons she’s such a valuable part of Franklin County Schools. Her efforts remind us that success isn’t just about the tests we take—it’s about the attitude and support we build around them. Thank you, Ms. Hunt, for your passion, commitment, and for making Franklin County High School a place where students feel inspired to achieve their best!

Dear Community, This week Franklin County Schools lost two students. We are deeply saddened for the family and our school community. Our schools have a team of counselors and mental health support staff available as long as we need it. While we are unable to speak about details, we ask everyone to join us in keeping the family and the school community in our thoughts and prayers. #OneTeamFCS
