FRANKLIN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Franklin Elem School is a public elementary school that is part of the Massac UD 1 school district, located in Metropolis, IL with about 186 students offering grade levels from Kindergarten to 6th Grade. With about 9 teachers, Franklin Elem School has a student/teacher ratio of about 20:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

As part of the Massac Unit School District #1, the school focuses on providing foundational academic instruction to students in the elementary grade levels.

Beyond core academics, Franklin Elementary emphasizes the social and emotional development of its students, striving to build a strong community feel within the school walls.
