This year's Admiral Games sailed through the gymnasium at Franklin High Friday, May 1. 

Franklin High students cheered on their Transition I and II peers as they competed for medals in a series of athletic events, including 50-yard dash, high jump and more.

"Admiral Games is one of the most meaningful events we do at Franklin because it gives our students with disabilities the chance to be celebrated as athletes in front of the entire school. Watching them compete with so much joy, confidence, and determination is incredibly special. For our students, it is a chance to feel seen, supported, and proud," said Transition 2 teacher Leah Sulmonetti. "For me, it is a reminder that sports are about belonging, community, and giving every student the chance to shine."
