When Franklin High School Principal David Levesque shared his concern about the costs of books for its Early College Program, Franklin Savings Bank was happy to assist! The program, which enables high school students to earn college credits through Lakes Region Community College, can provide students with a jumpstart on their college education, allowing for a competitive edge in the workforce.
“If we can help our students get a head start on their education goals, then that is an excellent investment for our entire community,” explains Brian Bozak, President & CEO at Franklin Savings Bank.
Through its program, Franklin High School is able to cover the cost of the college courses, however college books are an added expense. This is where Franklin Savings Bank jumped in to help. The bank supported the program with $750 to cover the cost of books, allowing students to spend more time learning, and less time worrying about this extra expense.
“Thanks to the generous support of Franklin Savings Bank, our students now have greater access to Early College opportunities at LRCC. Their commitment to education is helping our students take meaningful steps toward their future success and endeavors,” comments Principal David Levesque, Franklin High School
