Once considered low performing, Benjamin Franklin High School is now a top choice high school. A network of 75 partners customizes responses to the needs presented by the school's students and families. Students posted 17,000 service learning hours, 60 families were prevented from becoming homeless, and students are calling friends who dropped out and urging them to return. [5]

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN HIGH CELEBRATES RENOVATIONS [6]

Discharged in 1945, his decorations included the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Air Medal with Three Oak Leaf Clusters. After the war, he worked as a reporter for Dun & Bradstreet and taught history at Benjamin Franklin Junior High School in Brooklyn. [7]

Other recommendations presented last night include transitioning Benjamin Franklin Middle to become a high school. The school would not admit a new sixth-grade class, and current eighth-graders could stay on for ninth grade. [8]

These schools in Baltimore failed to meet standards for several years in a row and will be forced to undergo a major overhaul: Benjamin Franklin Jr. Middle [10]

High schools would open in Brooklyn and Cherry Hill under a proposal that is supported by Mayor Kurt L. Schmoke and is under study by city school officials. The idea, proposed more than a year ago, would expand to eighth grade the elementary schools in the two South Baltimore communities. Benjamin Franklin Middle School in Brooklyn and Arnett J. Brown Jr. Middle School in Cherry Hill then would become high schools.[12]
