The FHS student publications class (yearbook & journalism) is kickstarting their apparel fundraiser a little early this year! We wanted to try to give you options that are outside of what we have done in the past, so there are 2 forms to look at! Some of our specialty items include dad hats & bucket hats! Students can pick up order forms in the office or from Mrs. Black. The online store will be open later this week! We hope you enjoy the variety of items we have chosen & can't wait to see you in this new gear! All proceeds help to cover yearbook production costs! Please contact Mrs. Black at eblack@franklinhigh.com or via phone at (217) 675-2395 ext. 122 if you have any questions! Orders are due Wednesday, October 6.
