The Franklin County School Board meeting on April 15, 2025, began with a call for attendees to silence their cell phones to minimize disruptions. The meeting highlighted the achievements of four students from the district, two from Franklin County High School and two from Holland School, who were recognized for their participation as delegates in the student congress on policies and education.
During the meeting, the board presented certificates to these students in acknowledgment of their contributions. The students were also given the opportunity to share their experiences from the congress, emphasizing the importance of student voices in educational policy discussions.
This recognition not only celebrates the students' involvement but also underscores the district's commitment to fostering student engagement in governance and policy-making. The board's support for such initiatives reflects a broader effort to empower young leaders within the community.
