Good morning Franklin families,
Since January I have been working to more openly share with our whole community the challenges and the opportunities facing students and educators at this time. Worldwide, we have experienced the trauma of a pandemic unlike anything most of us can remember. We’ve all been changed. Within the context of schools, including our school, this shared trauma has resulted in higher levels of anxiety, more depression, disengagement from learning, and a generalized feeling of exhaustion. I am an eternal optimist and someone who believes deeply in the promise and the genius of all students. I also believe that hope and optimism are essential right now and that a large part of my job is highlighting reasons for optimism. My job is also to be honest about the state of education in our country, our state, and our school. It’s hard to find the right balance.
A recent report released by North Carolina Department of Instruction shows the following changes between last year and the last pre-pandemic school year (2018-2019):
- Student possession of controlled substances increased 14%
- Student possession of weapons (excluding guns and explosives) increased by 60%, while possession of guns and explosives increased by 30%
- Assaults on school personnel was the 3rd highest of all reported crimes.
- Reported acts of crime and violence in high schools increased by 23.5%
Within our school, we are facing some of these challenges. Fortunately, we have not seen an increase in possession of weapons or acts of violence. While a physical assault on school personnel would be shocking in our school, verbal assault happens. Pre-COVID, I can remember perhaps two times when a student cursed at me. These were highly unusual events. Post-COVID, this can happen any day and often in response to the most benign request. It’s just become part of the experience. We have seen an increase in student possession of controlled substances. This doesn’t mean that our school or our students are broken. It does mean that we are all responding to the impact of shared trauma and disruption, and that our community is experiencing this along with everyone else. Add to the mix that schools are at the forefront in national battles about racism, gender, and basic civil and human rights – it’s easy to understand why educators are exhausted.
We aren’t sitting around watching this happen. We’ve increased prevention efforts like more drug prevention education and student skill-development groups. We added a Behavior Specialist position last year and we’re adding a Dean of Students for the coming year. We’ve been fortunate so far that we have been able to fill all our teaching positions so our teachers are not dealing with larger class sizes or reduced support from special educators, counselors, or our school nurse.
We are also stepping up disciplinary response. While we understand that students who are experimenting with drugs and alcohol need help, we cannot allow these behaviors in school. Students who are caught in possession or under the influence face the following minimum consequences:
- First offense: Two days out of school suspension; possession of controlled substance reported to law enforcement in accordance with State regulations
- Second offense: Five days out of school suspension, report to law enforcement, and referral to counseling or mentoring
- Third offense: Consideration/recommendation for long-term suspension (over 10 days)
Cursing at someone will also result in a minimum one-day out of school suspension. Our teachers and staff deserve a safe place to work, and verbal assault cannot be tolerated.
We have no tolerance for hate speech, racism, or bias based sex, gender, or disability. Hate has no place in our community. Under our school policies racial or bias slurs, hate speech and harassment are Level 3 violations that will result in out-of-school suspension. Teachers and school staff are required to report incidents to school administrators. Students and staff can report incidents through the online Racism & Bias Reporting Form or directly to a principal, school director, or other trusted adult.
How can parents and guardians help? I have heard this question often this year and I deeply appreciate the continued support we receive from our community. Here are things you can do that have a positive impact:
- Talk with your kids! Talk about what it looks and sounds like to have positive and respectful relationships. Make sure they understand our discipline policies.
- Model positive behaviors. As a parent, I understand the feeling that our teens don’t listen to us. But as an educator, I promise you that they are watching. When parents model positive behaviors and respect for teachers, kids pay attention.
- Engage with our school. When parents are actively involved and supportive of their schools, students notice. Attend school events and activities. Come to your student’s conferences. Check in with your student about their growth, both academically and behaviorally. Your involvement makes a difference!
Join us for this important learning opportunity! This Tuesday, March 7th at 6 pm, Kriya Lendzion, LCMHC, LCAS, CPS, will provide a virtual education workshop addressing the following topics:
- Adolescent brains – their addictiveness and higher impact from substances
- Basic Principles of SA Prevention via my “Addiction-Proofing” model (mentioning supervision & monitoring, modeling, social hosting, discipline)
- Most important facts re: caffeine, nicotine, cannabis and vaping, plus fentanyl/Rx pill risk
- Signs of a Problem
- Talking Tips
- Response Tips
Register HERE right now in order to attend! All of us need this workshop right now. Let’s break school records for attendance and tune in Tuesday.
Mark your calendars for another essential community event. On Tuesday, March 28, at 6:30 pm, Danae Aicher will host a virtual Anti-Racism 101 workshop for the whole FSI community. This is the 1st of several workshops we will host with Danae and other experts. Danae is an experienced Equity and Inclusion consultant and facilitator with a gift for creating brave spaces for people to address difficult topics around race within their organizations. A former mass communications professional with a degree in History and more than 20 years of experience in news, politics and public relations, she utilizes all of her experience to help teams understand how racist systems and policies replicate and perpetuate themselves in an ongoing cycle unless they are intentionally interrupted. We are so excited to have her guidance in this work!
This Week’s Reason for Optimism
FSI students attended last weekend’s Model UN in Chapel Hill and it was a huge success! In the words of Model UN mentor Matt Reynolds, “this yearly event is always a reminder to me that experiential education is truly transformative. The students always start the first day stressed out and stretched in ways that they haven’t been stretched before. However, by day two they are making a new plan and meeting the challenge. By the last day they have surprised themselves with how much grit they have when forced to meet higher expectations. Additionally, they realize how intoxicating it can be to push yourself amongst a huge group of your equals and perform well. Everyone worked hard and had a great showing all in all. I am proud of each one of them.”
The “Outstanding students” at the conference were Amelia Kabat, Kylee Roark, and Ellice Ursin, and Rowan Bettencourt. Connor Lamb, Kamrin Fergusen, and Brody Sandifer Williams won one of the highest awards in their respective committees, “Verbal Commendation”. All the Model UN students honored FSI with their hard work and professional behaviors while on this field trip.
A huge thank you to Matt Reynolds for his continued commitment to Model UN, and to Sandi Wilson for her wonderful help as a chaperone. These beloved FSI teachers gave up their weekends (and much sleep!) to support this opportunity for students. Send them a thank you – they deserve it! mreynolds@thefsi.us and swilson@thefsi.us

From our Nurse
In the coming weeks and months, we can expect longer days, more blooms, and warmer sunshine. Especially while the weather is still in transition, please make sure your student is dressing in layers. The mornings are still chilly, but by the afternoon, I’m seeing students overheating in their sweatshirts and long-sleeves. Also, please make sure your student is coming to school with a full water bottle and is drinking and refilling it! Staying hydrated is that much more important on warm, sunny days.
Lastly, if your student has a severe allergy to any stinging insect, please make sure I have that information. Whether they need an emergency kit stored with me, or they are equipped to self-carry an epipen, having the proper forms and information keeps your student safe. Let’s make sure our students are well-prepared for a wonderful spring!

Along the way, Ugly meets a whole flock of unique characters and finds out being different is not a bad thing to be.
High School Drama Club
What do you get when you bundle physical and verbal folly, poetry and philosophy, disguises and spies, romance and murder? Shakespeare, of course! Or a parody of Shakespeare! FSI’s spring High School Theatre production, ‘Save Hamlet!’, is a fast paced comedy filled with lots of action and many surprises. It’s Shakespeare’s ‘Hamlet’, just shorter, sillier and less murder-y. While the fall show was a mature-themed drama, this spring show will be fun for all.
‘Save Hamlet!’ by Mark Harvey Levine will be performed in the theatre in the Asheville Masonic Temple (80 Broadway St) March 10th and 11th at 7:00 PM. General admission tickets are $10 and can now be purchased online. Questions? Email Julie Wharton, FSI High Theatre Director – jwharton@thefsi.us
