Our School

Franklin School is a Pre-Kindergarten to Eighth Grade school located in the North Ward section of the city of Newark.  We are a member of the North Region of the Newark Public School.  Built in 1889, Franklin School is located in a predominantly Hispanic community.  We house one of the largest Bilingual Education in the district with the majority of our students coming from homes where Spanish is the first language.

Franklin School currently has three Pre-Kindergarten classes, three Kindergarten classes, three First Grade classes, three Second Grade classes, five Third Grade classes, four Fourth Grade classes, three Fifth Grade classes, three Sixth Grade classes, four Seventh Grade classes and six self-contained Special Education classes spanning from Pre-Kindergarten to Seventh Grade.

Our school goals for this academic year include increased teacher accountability and data-driven instruction. Grade level meetings and staff development opportunities will provide teachers with the knowledge and tools needed to use both summative and formative assessment data to improve our school academic performance, inform classroom instruction, and to advance learning both individually and collaboratively.
