 * Welcome to Study Skills at Franklin High School!**

We are looking forward to having a great year with you. This WIKI will present strategies that if learned and **utilized** will lead to a successful high school career. These are your tools for success! Most days, during this class you will spend 10 minutes completing study skills lessons and the rest of the hour working on your homework from your other classes. You are responsible for filling out and bringing your planner to class everyday along with your homework. Your teacher will check your planner daily. On Wednesdays your teacher will help you get organized and on Fridays you and your teacher will meet to review your study skills lessons for the week.
