March 12, 2023 Last week, the Champlain Valley Superintendents Association (CVSA) met to review our decision to have school in session on April 8th, the solar eclipse day. Since our initial decision to have a half day, we have received more information trying to keep any traffic off the road that day from the state of Vermont and other Public Safety offices. The superintendents determined that each county of superintendents would decide whether the school would be open or closed. Due to the fact that our schools are in the path of the totality and will attract a large number of eclipse observers, the Franklin and Grand Isle Superintendents have determined that on April 8th, we will close schools and make up the day at the end of the year, very similar to a snow day. Thank you for your support and understanding.

At their meeting Tuesday evening, the Fletcher School Board voted to appoint Denette Locke as the Principal for Fletcher Elementary for the 2024-25 school year (and the rest of this year!). The Board praised Denette's communication with staff, community, and the board as well as her commitment to and passion for the Fletcher school. We are thrilled that Denette will transition from Interim Principal to Principal! Congratulations Denette! John

Out of an abundance of caution, we are cancelling all after school and evening activities at any Franklin West school (Fairfax, Fletcher, and Georgia) today. We are monitoring river conditions for potential impact on travel in the morning. We will update you as we have new information.
