School Campus
The school district consists of five buildings: Franklin Regional High School (grades 9â12), Franklin Regional Middle School (grades 6â8), Heritage Elementary School, Newlonsburg Elementary School, and Sloan Elementary School (each grades Kâ5). All buildings except for Sloan Elementary are situated on the school's main campus at the intersection of School Road and Old William Penn Highway in Murrysville.
The school's campus at one time extended to additional schools: Sardis Elementary School in Sardis, Delmont Elementary School in Delmont, White Valley Elementary School in White Valley, and Duff Elementary in Export. The Delmont and Duff school buildings are still standing and have been repurposed for other uses (the Delmont building houses the town library). White Valley Elementary was torn down in the late 1980s and the site is now a playground.
The school district is bordered by five other school districts: Burrell S.D., Kiski Area S.D., Greensburg-Salem S.D., Penn-Trafford S.D., and Gateway S.D. (in Allegheny County).
The school district is a "AAA" (Triple-A) sized school district for football classification (with "AAAA" (Quad-A) being the largest classification).

Famous quotes containing the word school:
“For those parents from lower-class and minority communities ... [who] have had minimal experience in negotiating dominant, external institutions or have had negative and hostile contact with social service agencies, their initial approaches to the school are often overwhelming and difficult. Not only does the school feel like an alien environment with incomprehensible norms and structures, but the families often do not feel entitled to make demands or force disagreements.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
