School History
In the beginning, our school was a private school. Later, it became a
school serving grades 1-12. In September 1975, we became College Grove
Elementary School serving grades K-6. With the opening of Page Middle
School in 1981, our school then served students in grades K-5. In 1993,
we proudly opened the doors of our new building on Arno Road. In the
Fall of 1997, we were one of four elementary schools to open a Pre-K
program. During the Winter of '99, our school became a 21st Century
School.
Before/After School Care
We have an Aftercare program that is sponsored by the Franklin YMCA. It
provides parents with child care after normal school hours. Our program
opens at 6:30 a.m. for all students and again at 11:15 daily for our
Pre-K students. It remains open until 6:00 p.m. each evening. The YMCA
program is also available to our families during most school holidays
and in the summer.

Jeanne Rice is the president of our PTO. This year the PTO and College
Grove School are sponsoring a one-time fundraiser, "READERS ROCK THE
SCHOOL" READ-A-THON.

Reading Renaissance program.
