Best of luck to our alumni! #TowneProud 👏
Many #SniderHockey & Education alumni are back at college this week! Join us in wishing good luck to our Goals & Assists students as they start or continue their college journey.
Our Mission: Franklin Towne Charter High School allows students to pursue pathways of learning which are respective to their personal interests, from the humanities to STEM, in an effort to infuse joy into learning; all while fostering warmth and positivity in a family-like atmosphere for our students. We were named a National Blue Ribbon School by the US Department of Education and 1 of the Top 100 Places to Work in Philadelphia by Philadelphia Magazine and Philly.com. Franklin Towne is committed to creating a safe, supported, progressive school environment where collaboration and cooperation are a priority. Location & Safety: Franklin Towne Charter High School is located in the Bridesburg-Tacony section of Northeast Philadelphia. Unlike most Philadelphia schools that are located within a neighborhood, Franklin Towne Charter H.S. is uniquely cut off from potential hazards of neighborhood violence due to Interstate 95 to the west and the Delaware River to the east. In addition, Franklin Towne is safely located within a gated community known as the Arsenal Business Center. Like the decommissioned Philadelphia Navy Yard in South Philly that has undergone a substantial rejuvenation, the Arsenal Business Center is following suit with its own revival. One of the most recent additions is the Guard House which is the unofficial café of Franklin Towne and the greater Arsenal campus.

Towne reached New Heights today as we welcomed in the largest student body during the school's 25 year history! It was the perfect first day, looking forward to doing it again tomorrow.
On the first day of school, our students begin their journey toward New Heights— taking on challenges, growing as a community, and showing up for each other up as they work for success. #Townepride #NewHeights

Just had the most epic first day of senior year at Towne! Our Senioritis Party was everything we needed to kick off our final year in style. From the moment we walked in, it felt surreal knowing this is our last "first day" together. Great throwback tunes? Total vibe. So many laughs with friends, and those pics are going to be legendary. This day was a reminder of how far we’ve come and how much we have to look forward to. Here’s to leading, laughing, and leaving our mark on Towne. Let’s make the Class of 2025 the most unforgettable yet! #SeniorYear #ClassOf2025 #TownePride #NewHeights
🎉 Exciting Start for the Towne Leadership Council (TLC)! 🎉 This Monday, August 26th, marked the opening training session for all members of the Towne Leadership Council (TLC) at Franklin Towne Charter High School! Our dedicated TLC members came together to focus on team-building and social skills, laying the groundwork for a successful year ahead. During the session, students engaged in activities designed to strengthen their ability to work as a cohesive team, develop strong leadership qualities, and build the confidence needed to lead by example. With this training, our TLC members are all set to welcome the incoming Class of 2028 on August 29th! They’ll be leading the way, ensuring that every new student feels supported, included, and ready to start their high school journey on the right foot. Here’s to a great start for the TLC and an amazing year ahead! #TLC #Leadership #TeamBuilding #ClassOf2028 #FranklinTownePride
