Dear Franklin Middle School @ SGS Families,

As the proud Principal of Franklin Middle School @ Sampson G. Smith Campus, I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to each one of you—both returning and new families. Our school community is one of immense strength and support, and I am thrilled to be a part of it.

I am excited to share with you our school-wide theme for the 2025 - 2026 academic year, which is "Strength"

With a School-wide theme of STRENGTH: We proudly embrace STRENGTH as our unifying theme. Strength takes many forms—mental, physical, emotional, and communal. Through this theme, we will celebrate the resilience and power within each of us while nurturing our capacity to grow through challenges. Strength is not only the ability to withstand adversity but also the courage to lead with integrity, stand up for others, and remain rooted in our values.

As we move forward together into this exciting school year, our collective commitment to this theme will create a learning environment where every student feels inspired, supported, and encouraged to achieve their fullest potential.

Thank you for your continued partnership and dedication to our school community.

Together, let’s make this a year filled with dreams realized and goals achieved!

Warm regards,

Mrs. Rebekah Solomon, Principal
