Dear Franklin Sherman Families,
The building is slowly starting to buzz again with new staff to Franklin Sherman returning this week. We will have all staff officially back next Monday. I am so thankful to our custodial team for getting the building sparkly clean and ready for the 24-25 school year.
In the next addition, I will share out our new staff memerbs this year and on August 15th your student's homeroom assignment will be sent to the parent email address that is registered in our Student Information System (SIS).
In the meantime, if you have any questions, concerns, or comments, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. I am looking forward to greeting the students in the upcoming weeks and having a great school year.

We are excited to announce our annual Celebrate McLean festival at McLean High School. This vibrant community event is filled with fun for all ages. Enjoy a lively atmosphere with a live DJ, delicious food trucks, engaging games including a moon bounce obstacle course, and much more.
Celebrate McLean also serves as a great opportunity for future and existing Highlanders to learn more about student clubs, activities, and our athletic teams. It’s a perfect way to kick off the evening before heading to support our McLean Varsity football team as they take on Meridian at 7pm right after the festival.
Join us and celebrate our community and cheer on our team for an unforgettable night! Admission is free to Celebrate McLean.
