Franklin STEAM Academy is hosting a block party next Thursday

It’s school open house season, where parents and family members typically get their first glimpse at what’s happening at their kids’ schools, meet the teachers, etc. On Thursday, September 12th, from 6 to 7:30 p.m., Franklin STEAM Academy is turning their open house into a big community block party. 

They will be closing off Harris Street, in front of the school, and will have food trucks, activities, prizes, booths, a DJ, and more. The event is open not just to students and families, but to anyone in the community who would like to join in the fun and/or see what’s happening at Franklin.
