🌸✨ Last night's Frontier Spring Fling was a blast! 🎉 From the excitement of the book fair to the athleticism of Punt-Pass-Kick with the Centennial Football Players, there was something for everyone. 💫 The Brick Lab and STEM kits sparked creativity, while meeting princesses and cuddling therapy dogs added a touch of magic. Thanks to everyone who joined us for a fantastic evening! 📚🏈🧱🔬👑



🚌🌟 What a week it's been at Frontier! Our little adventurers in Kindergarten had a roaring good time at the zoo, with many experiencing the thrill of a school bus ride for the very first time. Meanwhile, our Fifth Graders dove deep into history at Eagle Island, immersing themselves in the rich tapestry of America's past through Civil War Living History. And let's not forget our safety-savvy Third and Fourth Graders who mastered the art of bike and scooter safety at our bike rodeo! Here's to learning, exploration, and fun-filled adventures! 🚲🛴
