District-Level NCES Analysis
Franklin operates 4 public schools serving 1,208 students, placing it among the smallest districts in Florida. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 combined schools, a small enough portfolio that most families will interact with nearly every campus in the district at some point. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Franklin County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $16,334 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the top 7 of 67 Florida districts by per-pupil spending. See how Florida compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 70.4% local, 10.5% state, and 19.1% federal, a local-revenue-heavy mix that leaves the district more exposed to property-tax swings and local ballot measures than state-funded peers. The district's equity score is 76/100, ranked #7 of 67 in Florida against a state average of 51, notably more even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
a 567.3:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 49.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 66.9% White, 18.1% Hispanic or Latino, 4.4% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Apalachicola Bay Charter School, with a diversity index of 50.0/100.
Its largest campus is Franklin County School, enrolling 851 students (70% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Franklin Virtual Instruction Program, at 2 students, a 426x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Franklin County School accounts for 69.8% of all Franklin student enrollment
That is an overwhelming concentration, leaving the rest of Franklin a distant remainder — means Franklin-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the largest entity. Grade band: combined. The share measures enrollment concentration only; it does not establish how the district allocates programs, capital, or staff. Because it contains a majority of the affected population, enrollment-weighted aggregates will sit closer to this entity's reported fields than to those of smaller peers; an unweighted entity count answers a different question.
Franklin school enrollment varies 426× across entities
Franklin school enrollment ranges from 2 students (lowest) to 851 students (highest), a spread of 849 students. That ratio is an extreme outlier spread — among the widest gaps observed anywhere in this dataset. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
The reported share clears the 50% majority mark. Title I operates under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA, 2015), but its statutory allocation uses additional LEA-level counts and rules not represented by this average. This percentage is an economic-need context measure; it does not establish a Title I award, show dollars received, or describe how funds are distributed among campuses.
Franklin student-counselor ratio is 567:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Franklin chronic absenteeism rate is 49.8% — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Franklin has 4 schools, including 4 combined. Total enrollment is 1,208 students.
