Welcome to Franklin Fine Arts Center!

We hope you find our school as special as we do. Our administrators,
teachers and parents are devoted to creating a challenging and stimulating educational experience for our children in an environment of mutual respect.

James Hillman asked, "Where does imagination go to school in America?" We know you'll find it at Franklin.

ROCK THE WOW!!

We raised over $80,000 for Franklin: Our most successful fundraising event ever!

With 315 in attendance and a record amount of money raised, Franklin Rocked The Casbah! Thanks to you, “Raise Your Paddle” and “Fund-a-Need” raised almost $15,000 to specifically help retain our amazing staff. Thanks to you, we will be able to supplement the cost for full-day Kindergarten next year. Thanks to you, this was our most successful fundraiser ever! We proudly say THANK YOU to everyone who supported Rock The Casbah. These funds will soften the blow of the proposed state budget cuts, and allow Franklin to maintain our strong academic and fine arts programs. But our struggle isn’t over, please continue to support the Raise Your Hand Coalition, and insist on a solution to the Illinois budget crisis.
