Wag the Dog

Why does a dog wag its tail? Because a dog is smarter than its tail. If the tail was smarter, the tail would wag the dog! An old joke that applys to today.

FranklinNOW editors - We are still waiting.

As I  brought up in an earlier blog about the Franklin High School honor roll not being published. I have followed up on this with the editor of FranklinNOW and keep getting promises that it will be coming. It seems that they are waiting on some software to make it easier to publish our local school's honor rolls.

The original due date was mid-March which has come and gone, as we are finishing up with the 3rd quarter of this school year.

Several folks from the private schools in Franklin along with Tanya Ruder the Communications Specialist of the Franklin Public schools have told me they are ready to work with FranklinNOW editors to get this information published on the NOW website.

My question is. Will we be asking this same question next year?

If so, FranklinNOW, don't encourage the schools to send their honor roll lists, just remove it from your website

Good for you Bryan.  Keep pushing Mark Maley on this, as well as FPS.  

Maybe some school board member could take it upon themself to push FranklinNOW even harder on this, or is that beneath them?

Bryan, you're right...there is no excuse for this. Well, I have some excuses but won't get into them now. The bottom line is this should have been done a long time ago.

We will get the honor rolls online THIS WEEK...and after that they will be promptly posted.
