23 student leaders represented Franklin Towne Charter High School well today through the Involved at 17 program! Watching them work the polls across Philadelphia and engage firsthand with our democratic process is truly inspiring. Thank you to everyone supporting this journey: Meghan B. for guiding our students with such dedication, and our wonderful partners—Chairman Commissioner Omar Sabir, Commissioner Seth Bluestein, Samuel Forman, PA Youth Vote, and the Committee of Seventy. And a huge thanks to our families and faculty for encouraging these future leaders. #ElectionDay #InvolvedAt17 #Vote #TowneProud #Community #Leadership #Service #PhillyRises

🎉 Celebrating Our Involved at 17 Students on Election Day! We are incredibly proud of our 23 students participating in the Involved at 17 program, working the polls across Philadelphia 🗳️ today! These young leaders are stepping up, not only to serve their community but to actively engage in the democratic process. Through this experience, they’re building their resumes, honing leadership skills, and most importantly gaining hands-on civic engagement. Their dedication paves the way for the Governor’s Civic Engagement Award in the spring! 🌟 Before taking on this responsibility, students completed rigorous training and passed a qualifying test. Today, they’re working from 6:30 am to 8:30 pm, exemplifying true commitment.💪 A special thank you to Meghan B. for her professionalism and patience in working with our students and to our partners—Chairman Commissioner Omar Sabir, Commissioner Seth Bluestein, PA Youth Vote, and Committee of Seventy—for supporting this important program in our high schools over the past year. Most importantly thank you to our parents for supporting this initiative. 🙏 Good luck to our students! We’re so proud of your commitment to service and leadership. #ElectionDay #InvolvedAt17 #Vote #TowneProud #Community #Leadership #Service #PhillyRises

The goal of our HBCU Fair was for the African American history class to showcase the history and legacy of Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Students guided, by Ms. Ahmiya N. Jones and with strong backing from the FTCHS guidance department (Liz Kaisinger and Diaka Thiam, M.S.), conducted research on each college and universities founding, its role in advancing Black education, and its academic programs. Their presentations inspired seniors and juniors by connecting them with schools rooted in cultural pride and academic excellence. #hbcu #Towneproud #collegefair #newheights

Thank you Philadelphia Financial Scholars for empowering Future Entrepreneurs at Franklin Towne Charter High School ! On October 24th, we had the pleasure of hosting guest speaker Tunji Adebayo, thanks to our partnership with Philadelphia Financial Scholars. Tunji delivered an inspiring talk on taking risks and transforming failures into opportunities, sharing wisdom that applies not only to entrepreneurship but to all aspects of life. Mr. Joseph Curry, who observed the presentation, shared, “The entire presentation by Tunji was phenomenal. The level of engagement from the students was some of the highest I've ever seen, and it was entertaining to say the least. The entrepreneurial and risk-taking skills discussed will for sure set the students up for future success.” Thank you Danielle Hernandez for your organizations work to show our students that calculated risks and resilience are key ingredients for success. We’re excited to see how these future leaders take on the world! #TownePower #Entrepreneurship #StudentSuccess #newheights #PhiladelphiaFinancialScholars
