📚 Introducing Franklin County’s New Out-of-School Suspension Program!

Stayin’ Alive is excited to be working alongside Franklin County Community School Corporation and Franklin County Court Services to coordinate a new Out-of-School Suspension Program designed to give students more than just a day away from school.

Students referred to the program will report to Franklin County Court Services, where they will have a structured environment to complete their schoolwork while also participating in educational programming focused on prevention, decision-making, accountability, and making healthier choices.

We are also very excited to introduce Pheobe Kroen our new Out-of-School Suspension Program Manager! 🎉

Phoebe will coordinate the day-to-day program, work closely with students, families, school staff, and Court Services, and help connect students with additional resources and support when needed.

Our goal is simple: when a student makes a mistake, we want to use that opportunity to educate, intervene, and help them make a different choice moving forward.

We are incredibly thankful for the partnership between Stayin’ Alive, Franklin County Community School Corporation, and Franklin County Court Services that has helped bring this program to life.

Please join us in welcoming Phoebe to the Stayin’ Alive team! 💙

What an incredible evening at National Night Out! 💙

A huge thank you to everyone who came out and made the night such a success. It was amazing to see so many families connecting with local organizations, first responders, and neighbors. Events like this remind us how strong our community is when we come together.

thank you to the Franklin County Sheriff’s Department for grilling dinner on their brand-new grill, purchased through grant funding from the Stayin’ Alive Local Coordinating Council (LCC) Program.

We’d also like to thank the Brookville Police Department for providing the hamburgers and hot dogs, purchased through their Stayin’ Alive LCC grant funding. It’s wonderful to see these grant dollars being used to support community events that bring families together and strengthen the relationships between law enforcement and the people they serve.

Thank you to all of the organizations, volunteers, and community members who helped make the evening possible. Your time, support, and commitment to Franklin County are what make events like this so special.

We are grateful for everyone who joined us and helped make National Night Out such a memorable evening. We can’t wait to see you again next year! 💚💚💚
