Our goal and responsibility is to help each student develop an enthusiasm for learning, a respect for self and others, and the skills to become a creative independent thinker and problem solver.

  What's New at BF?

Theme

Dear Benjamin Franklin Parents/Guardians: 

Welcome back to the 2026-2027 school year! As the first day of school is quickly approaching, I wanted to provide you with some details to help you prepare for the school year. At Ben Franklin School, we believe kindness makes everything better—and brighter!  This year, our schoolwide theme is "The Magic of Ben Franklin Starts with Friendship." The relationships we build are the foundation of a successful school community. Every interaction is an opportunity to create a sense of belonging, build trust, and remind everyone that they are valued members of the Ben Franklin family.
