Franklin Public Schools invites you and your families
Wednesday, December 9, 2026 from 6-8pm, Franklin High School Auditorium
Please use discretion when deciding to bring your children to the screening as the film addresses topics suitable for more mature viewers. It is recommended for viewers age 11 and older.
Screenagers: Generation AI is the fifth film from the team behind the acclaimed Screenagers documentary series. Like other films in the series, Screenagers: Generation AI captures the critical moment we're in collectively as AI reshapes young people's relationships, learning, and mental health. The film weaves approachable science and personal experiences, and equips parents, educators, and communities with tools to actively shape how AI enters their schools and homes.
