Mission Statement

The mission of FCMS is to create and maintain an environment that will educate and empower all students to become contributing members in a dynamic, global society. We are committed to providing a comprehensive system of support to ensure that every student has the opportunity to meet or exceed state and national standards.

About the School

In 1964, the schools within Franklin County were consolidated into one school district, with a newly constructed high school in Carnesville.  In 1973, students in the 7th and 8th grades were consolidated into a new Franklin County Junior High School, located on Busha Road in Carnesville.  In the mid 90s, the Junior High School became a middle school with the addition of the 6th grade, using the old Red Hill Wing.  In the fall of 2006, Franklin County Middle School moved from the old facility on Busha Road into the newly completed building on Turkey Creek Road.  Franklin County Middle School is the only middle school in the Franklin County School System, with an enrollment of approximately 900 students.
