Director
Ms. Lori
Since I started working at Franklin Academy Preschool 34 years ago, I have seen our program grow and evolve into the leading childcare program that it is today. As the founder of the one-room childcare program, it has been amazing to see the number of families that we have helped over the years and the large program we have become. At Franklin Academy Preschool, we believe that education is a lifelong journey, and we strive to instill a love of learning in our students from an early age.
