[edit] School History
The town of Franklin has played an important role in the lives of families in southern Sacramento County ever since its beginning in 1856. Andrew George founded Franklin, and named it Georgetown, after himself. Franklin Boulevard had been the main road from Sutter's Fort to the Mexican town of Georgetown in Sacramento County and another town of the same name, so residents began referring to the town as Franklin in honor of George Franklin's mother's family. Franklin High School opened in 2002 in the new East Franklin area. Franklin High School has had a graduating class every year since the class of 2005.
