Message from Superintendent Cruz

Dear Franklin-McKinley Community,

We are in the final stretch of the 2017-18 school year and have so many things to celebrate. We have hundreds of staff that help make our District a great place for children to thrive. This month was extremely special as we celebrated all the hard work of our certificated and classified staff at our annual appreciation event. I loved seeing our staff come together and appreciate all of them doing their very best every day.

No Child Goes Hungry This Summer

With summer right around the corner, it’s time to think about how children who receive free or reduced-priced lunch in school will eat healthy while school is out. Franklin-McKinley School District provides free meals to children during the summer. Each year, the U.S. Department of Agriculture partners with local organizations like Franklin-McKinley School District, to provide free meals to children when school is out for the summer. Any child under age 18 may come and eat. As a District, we want to ensure no child goes hungry this summer. We invite you to take access the Seamless Summer Food Program and share with your friends and neighbors. Read More

Making Health a Priority This Summer: Importance of Health Checkups & Pertussis Booster

We are just a few weeks away from summer vacation, and whether you will be a first-time or a continuing parent at our District, it is important to make the health of our children a priority. Access to health services is the key to living a healthy, happy life, as well as preventing and detecting health conditions.

As part of our Staring Smart and Strong Initiative, one of our shared long-term commitments is to help families obtain access to health care services. Ensuring all students are healthy and ready, so they can reach their full potential in school and in life is critical. Read More
