MLK Breakfast 201530
Township resident Randal Pinkett is part of a 7-member group seeking to establish a third charter school in the township.

A group including the management team of Oak Crest Day Camp and a township resident who in 2005 won “The Apprentice” television program has submitted an application with the state to open a charter school in Franklin.

If approved, the Ailanthus Charter School would be the third in the township. The school would be targeted to students in Franklin and New Brunswick, according to the application, because those towns “possessed academic challenges that would be remedied by the chosen school model.”
