🚌🌟 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! 🚲🛴

Allow us to to introduce you to Jessica Waddell, an outstanding first-year ECSE teacher who has made a significant impact on our youngest students with the highest needs. Mrs. Waddell initially joined our preschool team three years ago as a paraprofessional while pursuing her teaching degree. During this time, she exemplified professionalism, a strong work ethic, and a collaborative spirit. Quickly becoming an integral part of our Frontier team, Jessica treated our school as her family.
