Well done Franklin 5th Graders!!!

Thank you to everyone who participated in the 5th grade food drive for Upward Bound House.  We collected food items over a two week period and the 5th graders were able to sort and organize it last week. They also made cards and pictures. Our donations filled a minivan and were dropped off at their facility last week.  We also appreciate all the 5th graders who came out to the UBH fun run.  It was an enjoyable way to support families who are working on gaining emotional and financial stability.

We also want to give a special shout out to the 3rd Grade who also partipated in the UBH Fun Run. Between 3rd and 5th grade students and families, we raised $6,913 for Upward Bound House which directly supports our community. 

Not only did we contribute to our Santa Monica community, we fostered community among our Franklin family. Witnessing students conquer a physical challenge together with laughter and encouragement.
