Most of the buyers at Smith Mountain Lake are either retiring or buying a second home or for investment so we don’t get a lot of chance to talk about the school systems around the lake. The high schoolers on the Franklin County side of the lake attend Franklin County High School.
Franklin County High School just received a bronze rating in the 2009 US News and World Report rankings; making it one of the best 1900 schools in the nation (also one of the best top 35 in Virginia). This just makes me smile and it makes me happy for all the educators and students that helped this happen.
On a separate note, four Franklin County elementary schools were awarded the 2009 Governor’s Award for Educational Excellence.
