HOST FAMILIES
STILL NEEDED
This year, Franklin Regional School
District will offer an opportunity for our students
to be part of a unique foreign exchange program with
a high school in Ecuador. In order for this program
to operate, we need to locate five host families
willing to take exchange students into their home
for approximately 4 to 5 weeks, during March and
April. In addition, we also need students that would
be interested in spending approximately 15 days in
Ecuador in July.
If you would be willing to open your
home to a foreign exchange student or if your child
would like to travel as part of our foreign exchange
program, please see Ms. Wills in room 130 or Mrs.
Thomas in room 128 for applications & more
information.
Franklin Regional School District
takes pride in providing unique educational
opportunism. If you have any questions about this
program, or are willing to serve as a host family,
please contact Ms. Wills (ext 5130) or Mrs. Thomas
(ext 5128) at 724-327-5456.
(Ms. Wills and Mrs. Thomas)
FYI - Two more host
families are needed. The opportunity to be a host
family is open to anyone in the high community, your
children don't have to be Spanish students.
PHONES STILL
NEEDED
The musical is in search of
fifty, (50), 1957 style rotary telephones. We
can use any color or any design and they do not
need to work. Please check attics, storage
areas and garages for this very important prop
for a major dance number in the show. Please
bring them to the high school office with your
name and phone number if you would like them
returned after the show. Contact Deb Scheinert
at
FRSTAGEMOM@aol.com or
call 412 491-0062 with any questions.

Editor's
note: I will run fundraising
announcements in the
E-News about once a week. If you
are associated with a school
related organization and would
like to advertise it in
the E-News please send me an
article to
FRHSnews@windstream.net. I
have found the simpler the
format the better. Often when I
copy more complicated items the
original formatting (fonts,
spacing, colors, etc) doesn't
transfer well and I end up
having to retype the article.
Please be sure to include a
contact person and an end date,
so I know how long to run the
article.
