Re:  	Franklin Covey Co.
Preliminary Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A
Filed on December 8, 2004
	File No. 000-27767

Dear Mr. Whitman:

      We have reviewed selected portions of your filing and have
the
following comments.  Where indicated, we think you should revise
your
document in response to these comments.  If you disagree, we will
consider your explanation as to why our comment is inapplicable or
a
revision is unnecessary.  Please be as detailed as necessary in
your
explanation.  In some of our comments, we may ask you to provide
us
with supplemental information so we may better understand your
disclosure.  After reviewing this information, we may or may not
raise additional comments.

	The purpose of our review process is to assist you in your
compliance with the applicable disclosure requirements and to
enhance
the overall disclosure in your filing.  We look forward to working
with you in these respects and welcome any questions you may have
about our comments or on any other aspect of our review.  Feel
free
to call us at the telephone numbers listed at the end of this
letter.

General

1. As you know, the Division of Enforcement has commenced an
investigation regarding certain matters which may be related to
the
Company.  The staff responsible for the investigation are not the
staff responsible for the comment process in the Division of
Corporation Finance.  Nonetheless, you are advised that any
information provided to the staff in response to comments, or
supplementally may be given to the Division of Enforcement.

With respect to any comments that directly or indirectly relate to
the matters under investigation by the Division of Enforcement,
all
persons who are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of the
disclosure in the filing are urged to be certain that all
information
required for shareholders to make an informed decision is
provided.
Since the company and management are in possession of all facts
with
respect to the matters under investigation, despite the staff`s
comments, they are responsible for the accuracy and adequacy of
the
disclosures made regardless of our comments.

Additionally, the company should provide written acknowledgement
of
the following:
* The adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in the filing is the
responsibility of the registrant.
* The company acknowledges that staff comment or changes in
response
to staff comment in the proposed disclosure in the Preliminary
Schedule 14A do not foreclose the Commission from taking any
action
with respect to the filing.
* The company also represents that staff comment may not be
asserted
as a defense in any proceeding initiated by the Commission or any
person under the federal securities laws of the United States.

Requirements as to Proxy

2. Please note that Rule 14a-4(a) requires that the proxy
"identify
clearly and impartially each separate matter intended to be acted
upon, whether or not related to or conditioned on the approval of
other matters."  We note that certain items related to the
Recapitalization Transaction would require a shareholder vote
without
regard to the vote on the recapitalization of the Series A
Preferred
Stock.  Refer generally to the first 6 bullet points on page 30.
Please revise to include a separate vote on each item related to
the
amendment and restatement of the Company`s Articles of
Incorporation,
the recapitalization of the Series A Preferred Stock and the
issuance
of warrants to holders of Series A Preferred Stock.  You may have
the
separate proposals be contingent on one another, but they must be
separate items to vote on.

3. Similarly revise proposal (vii) to provide for a separate vote
for
the adjournment of the Annual Meeting to solicit additional votes
in
favor of the proposal to amend and restate the Articles of
Incorporation and the proposal to issue warrants.

4. In that regard, please ensure that changes are made to the form
of
the proxy card and to the disclosure in the proxy statement.  To
the
extent any separate items are conditioned upon one another, the
disclosure must be clear on the proxy card.  Please refer to Item
19
of Schedule 14A.


Proposal V, page 29

5. Confirm that you have included all of the information required
pursuant to Item 404(b) of Regulation S-K, particularly as it
relates
to Knowledge Capital.

6. Refer to the last paragraph on page 31.  Identify the members
of
the Special Committee here.

Effect of the Recapitalization on Relative Voting Power and
Economic
Interest, page 32

7. The discussion in this section is difficult to follow.  Revise
this section to clearly outline the differences in voting power
and
economic interest resulting from the Articles Amendment and the
Recapitalization.  Consider including a tabular presentation of
the
information.

Background of the Articles Amendment, page 33

8. Refer to the third full paragraph on page 34.  Summarize the
preliminary analysis presented by management as well as the
preliminary analysis prepared by ThinkEquity to the Special
Committee.  It appears that a preliminary analysis by management
and
ThinkEquity was presented to the Special Committee at later dates
as
well.  Revise your disclosure to summarize each of the
presentations
made to the Special Committee.

9. Provide us with copies of any documentation such as outlines,
summaries or reports furnished to the Special Committee.

10. Discuss the analysis and the recommendations presented by
Davidson on June 4, 2004.  Provide us with copies of any
documentation such as outlines, summaries or reports prepared and
furnished by Davidson to the Special Committee.

Reasons for the Articles Amendment, page 36

11. Please revise into two lists:  (1) the reasons considered in
favor of the articles amendment; (2) the reasons the Special
Committee and the Board considered against the proposed amendment.
If there were none, so state.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Special Committee, page 38

12. Disclose why Davidson uses the valuation techniques performed
in
connection with this opinion.

13. Please include a tabular presentation comparing the
theoretical
present value pre- and post-recapitalization.

14. It is unclear from the presentation why the exit multiples and
valuation multiples of comparable companies supports a finding of
fairness.  Please revise for clarity.  You should also include
your
own valuation multiples in the table.

Preferred Stock Analysis, page 42

15. Revise the third paragraph to state the major assumptions made
by
Davidson.

Description of the Common Stock, page 43

16. Consider presenting a comparison of the Existing Articles and
the
proposed Restated Articles in a tabular format.

Appendix D

17. Revise paragraph number 5 to reflect votes cast in separate
but
related proposals regarding the Restated Articles.
