Math Night is Mrs. Rygiel's vision and it comes together with support from our generous PTO and the Franklin Faculty! It would not happened with great teamwork! We started the festivities with a passing of the torch at the end of the school day! Thanks everyone!









Math Night is a wonderful Franklin community event. Former Franklin All-Stars return to volunteer with running the stations. Little siblings get a special passport to join the fun. Current students test their math skills and challenge their math brains by calculating, estimating and problem solving as they visit each station--gathering stickers as they accomplish each challenge. Our theme this year is the Olympics. Go for the gold!!
