Here are the top three stories in Franklin today:

1. Williamson County caregivers in need of a car seat can now receive one, thanks to grant funding from the Tennessee Department of Health. The free car seat program is open to primary caregivers residing in Williamson County with an income below the federal poverty line. Anyone interested in the program can contact certified Crystal Nall, the certified car seat technician with the Williamson County Health Department, at (615) 465-5335 or via email at crystal.nall@tn.gov. (News Channel 5 Nashville)
2. Students at Franklin's Centennial High School will compete in the State Science Olympiad on Apr. 9. The team from Centennial High is one of five representing Williamson County in the statewide competition. Students will compete in over 20 STEM events, including solving lab issues with chemical reactions and building a bridge that will hold the most weight. (Williamson Source)
