CHAMPAIGN – There may not be any Oscars handed out, but Friday night will be like Academy Awards night for a group of Franklin Middle School students.
The students helped write, produce and act in a film dealing with the issue of bullying. Their classmates and the community can see the result of their work when the film is shown at 7 p.m. Friday at the Virginia Theatre. The screening is free.
