Principal's Message

My name is Marine Davtyan and I am thrilled and honored to join the Panther family as your new principal. Integrity, equity, excellence, and a student-centered approach are at the heart of everything I do. I believe deeply in the potential of every student at Franklin High and know that with the right support and opportunities, they can thrive both academically and socially.

I am a strong believer in shared leadership and believe that by working together, we can propel our school forward. By involving students, staff, and parents in decision-making processes, we can foster a sense of ownership and responsibility, ensuring that every voice is heard and valued.

Franklin High School boasts a rich legacy of academic excellence and strong community involvement, highlighted by our multiple national and state academic awards, thriving sports teams, and robust student clubs. I come in recognizing and respecting this great legacy and am committed to building on it. The deep community involvement at Franklin High is truly inspiring. Our school’s strength lies in our supportive and engaged community, our dedicated staff, and our resilient and ambitious students. Together, we can achieve great things.

I am committed to earning your trust through my actions, transparency, and dedication to our school’s success. I want to empower our students to have a voice in our school. It is crucial that our students recognize their agency and know that we are all here to support them. I don't have a magic wand, nor do I come with preconceived ideas. I come with empathy, resilience, and a commitment to doing what is right by our kids.
