Good Morning Franklin Families: Due to the sporadic google outage, we are canceling school for today. Additionally, due to the positive case of a staff member at Franklin High School, the high school will remain remote all this week. Paul Smith School is remote all this week as well. Franklin Middle School is set to re-open for Cohort A students tomorrow. Thank you. Dan LeGallo Superintendent

Good Morning - We wanted to inform you that Google is down nationwide. As soon as we have more information we will let you know.

Good afternoon Franklin Families, I have just been informed that a staff member at Franklin High School has tested positive for Covid-19. We are initiating contact tracing immediately. We are already remote for tomorrow and I will let you know the status of the school for Tuesday on Monday afternoon. Sincerely, Dan LeGallo SAU 18 Superintendent

Dear Franklin Families, I am reaching out to you today to report 2 positive staff cases in the school district. One is a district employee and one is a Paul Smith staff member. Due to the number of staff having to quarantine at Paul Smith School and the length of the quarantine, Paul Smith School will be fully remote all next week. I am hoping to open the middle school and high school on Tuesday and will make that decision on Monday. I am personally doing very well in my recovery and appreciate all of the well wishes sent my way. Please feel free to reach out to me with any questions. Sincerely, Dan LeGallo SAU 18 Superintendent

Good Afternoon Franklin Families, I am reaching out to you to let you know that I have been informed this afternoon that I have tested positive for COVID-19. I had taken my test on Saturday evening after experiencing a minor sore throat. The contact tracing will take some time because of my presence in all 3 schools and will lead to a short term closure of the SAU so I am going to move us to remote status at all 3 schools in the District for the remainder of the week. All 3 schools will be closed for in-person learning through next Monday. Meal deliveries and pickups will continue as usual. I appreciate all of your support during these trying times. Dan LeGallo SAU 18 Superintendent

Dear Franklin Families, A middle school staff member, a fully remote high school student, and a hybrid high school student each tested positive today for Covid-19 The hybrid student has not been in school since before Thanksgiving so the contract tracing was minimal and has been completed. All 3 schools are set to open for in-person learning tomorrow for Cohort A students at this time. Sincerely, Dan LeGallo SAU 18 Superintendent

Good afternoon Franklin Families. A fully remote middle school student has tested positive today for COVID-19. Because of the student's remote status, no action needs to be taken regarding the school. All 3 schools are open for in-person learning tomorrow with Cohort A students. Please remember to screen your children for symptoms prior to sending them to school and contact us if your child is sick.

Good Afternoon Franklin Families, I hope you enjoyed your Thanksgiving break. We have had no new cases reported in the district to date so all 3 schools will be open for in-person learning tomorrow for Cohort A students. Please remember to screen your children for symptoms and keep them home if they are not feeling well. Please also be aware of the quarantine rules for those who have traveled outside of New England for Thanksgiving break. A 7 day quarantine with a negative test on the 7th day or a 14 day quarantine are mandatory. Thank you for your help in keeping our school community healthy and safe.

Dear Franklin Families, I am reaching out to let you know that the middle school will need to be fully remote tomorrow because of the number of staff that need to be in quarantine because of exposure to Covid-19. The elementary school and high school will be open for in-person learning for Cohort A students. Meal deliveries will continue during our morning bus run tomorrow. Cold meals and grocery bags from the food pantry will be available at the middle school window from 7:30 -12:00. A reminder that there is no school on Wednesday as it is the start of the Thanksgiving break.

We have received full grocery bags from the Franklin Food Pantry this morning for distribution. The middle school window will be open until 12:00 today for distribution of the grocery bags and cold meals as well. We will also deliver the grocery bags tomorrow during our morning bus run. We are grateful to the food pantry for partnering with us for this food distribution.

Good Afternoon Franklin Families I am reaching out to tell you that we have completed our contact tracing and notifications for our middle school positive student case. I hope this news brings you some comfort and reduces some anxiety as we head into the weekend. Currently, we have no new cases in the school district to report. We are fully remote on Monday as usual and I plan to be open at all 3 schools on Tuesday unless we have more positive cases. I hope you have a healthy and safe weekend. Sincerely, Dan LeGallo
