Introduction to Home Education Workshop!

Should you or have you ever considered home education?

Please join Franklin Learning Activity Group for our annual presentation to advocate and support home education in Franklin County. The program will feature local speakers currently home educating their own children and will focus on their personal journeys, the laws and regulations governing home education in Pennsylvania, and the diverse approaches to home education. Parents will be on hand to answer questions after the presentation. 

Refreshments and light snacks will be provided. 

This Program is free to the public.

Signup sheets also available at the Besore Library. 

FLAG is a group of Franklin County families that care passionately about the academic and social needs of their children and are building educational paths outside of the school system. The group is not religiously affiliated.

New Patio Tables!!!

These tables were made by Tyler Douglas for his Eagle Scouts Project. :) Tyler is with Troop 99, we will be getting more seating made by him in the near future. So please come, take a seat, and enjoy our new patio furniture. :)

Family Place!!

Our Youth Services Coordinator, Ms. Tammy, has been holding special Toddler Storytimes for the month of March; with the help of some of our local community members. These special Storytimes are called Family Place Programs; that teach children and parents special learning skills.

Preschool Storytime! :)

Students were able to use snow and colored water to experiment what happens when colors mix. The students created snow pies, rainbows, ice cream, and snowmen. Afterwards, the students came back to carpet, shared what they created and what they learned about snow. One student decided to wear his mittens!
