In 2025–2026, Franklin Middle ranked 491 of 546 schools, in the 10th percentile, with 1 star. That is an improvement from 2024–2025, when it was 504 of 519, in the 3rd percentile, with 0 stars, and from 2023–2024, when it was 513 of 545, in the 6th percentile, with 0 stars. All-grade proficiency improved from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026 in Math (6.64% to 10.9%), Reading (14.69% to 21.7%), and Science (1.47% to 3.9%). Still, 2025–2026 results remain below district and state: Math 10.9% vs district 37.1% and state 44.9%; Reading 21.7% vs district 41.8% and state 48.6%; Science 3.9% vs district 21.7% and state 25.5%.

Reading is the strongest reported subject at 21.7% proficient, while Science is the weakest at 3.9%; 8th-grade Science is also 3.9%, compared with 14.6% in the district and 16.7% in the state. In Math and Reading, proficiency declines from 6th to 8th grade: Math 14.6%, 9.3%, and 7.8%; Reading 29.8%, 18.8%, and 14.1%. The school serves a high-need population, with 83.46% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch in 2024–2025, and its 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 9.9, which looks favorable but lacks district or state comparison in this data. The district itself ranks 310 of 458, in the 32nd percentile, with 2 stars, so Franklin Middle is performing below an already below-average district context.
