Franklin Regional School District is a midsized, suburban public school district located in Murrysville, Pennsylvania, serving Murrysville and the neighboring communities of Delmont and Export. Franklin Regional School District encompasses approximately 38 sqmi. According to 2020 federal census data, it serves a resident population of 19,438 people. According to District officials, in school year 2021-22, Franklin Regional School District provided basic educational services to 3,555 pupils through the employment of 249 teachers, 152 full-time and part-time support personnel, and 19 administrators. On April 9, 2014, a mass stabbing incident occurred at the Franklin Regional High School in which 24 people (students, teachers, and police officers) were injured, some of them seriously.

School campus

The school district consists of four buildings: Franklin Regional High School (grades 9–12), Franklin Regional Middle School (grades 6–8), Franklin Regional Intermediate School (grades 3–5), and Franklin Regional Primary School (grades K–2). All buildings except for the Primary and Intermediate schools are situated on the school's main campus at the intersection of School Road and Old William Penn Highway in Murrysville. Prior to the 2021-22 school year, students in grades K-5 attended one of three schools, Newlonsburg Elementary School, Heritage Elementary School, or Sloan Elementary School, of which all but Sloan were on the main campus. In October 2018, a project was passed by the Murrysville Council to renovate Sloan into a school for grades K-2 (FR Primary School) and to create a nearby new school for grades 3-5 (FR Intermediate School). Construction began in July 2019, and students began attending at the start of the 2021-22 school year. There are plans to raze Heritage Elementary School, which contains the Administration Offices, and maybe turn Newlonsburg into the new Administration Offices. These plans have been delayed due to a finding of asbestos in Heritage's ceilings. The school's campus at one time also extended to additional schools: Sardis Elementary School in Sardis, Delmont Elementary School in Delmont, White Valley Elementary School in White Valley, and Duff Elementary in Export. The Delmont and Duff school buildings are still standing and have been repurposed for other uses (the Delmont building houses the town library). White Valley Elementary was torn down in the late 1980s and the site is now a playground.
