School Information

Franklin School is the Corvallis School District’s only K-8 school and is also the only non-boundary area school. Our diverse student population reflects the Corvallis community. Franklin students experience the Core Knowledge Curriculum, a sequential and structured curriculum designed to give all children the advantage of a solid foundation in cultural literacy.

• Enrollment at Franklin is done through a lottery process. Families of all prospective new students must submit a transfer request through the Corvallis School District during the transfer window in the spring (typically March or April.)
• Families of prospective Kindergarten students need to complete enrollment at their home school in March as well as request a transfer to Franklin. Once the transfer request has been completed your registration information will be obtained from your home school.
• Families must provide transportation for their student to and from school. After-school busing is available to the Boys and Girls Club of Corvallis each school day.

We are committed to providing all students with a relevant and challenging education that prepares them to be engaged and contributing citizens. Our motto is What You Do Matters!

We believe:

• All children can learn.
• Children learn in a secure, supportive environment.
• Children can achieve high academic performance.
• Self-esteem grows when accomplishments are made in a challenging environment.
• Enthusiasm by students, families, and teachers enhances learning.
• Family and school are partners in the educational process.
