The Falcons were busy the week before Thanksgiving break! 🦃✨
In Kindergarten, Mrs. Tamura’s class practiced spelling short vowel words with a fun and active “Write the Room” activity. 📝💡
In 1st grade, Mrs. Medley’s students became inventors—designing umbrellas that wouldn’t blow away by studying how plants use their external parts to survive and thrive. ☔🌱
Our 3rd graders in Mrs. LaMay’s and Mrs. Leishman’s classes enjoyed a full STEM day packed with hands-on learning. They even engineered their own Thanksgiving Day balloons inspired by the Macy’s parade! 🎈🧪
So much creativity and curiosity at Frontier! 💙🤍

Our 4th graders had an awesome time at the Idaho State Museum last week!
They learned about Idaho’s five tribes, including their origin stories and the resources they used to create clothing, tools, and shelter. After the guided tour and hands-on activity, students had time to explore the museum on their own.
A definite fan favorite? The two-headed calf exhibit! 🐮

🐰 Did you know? The Idaho Humane Society partners with classroom teachers through their Rabbit and Rodent Rescue program, allowing students to foster small animals and learn about responsible pet care.
Mrs. Dutcher’s class had the joy of fostering Buffy the bunny during October — and it’s safe to say her students (and the staff!) quickly fell in love. 💕
Buffy is now back at the Idaho Humane Society and looking for her forever home!

🎃👻 Frontier’s Annual Halloween Parade & Party! 👻🎃
Get ready for some spooky fun! On Friday, October 31st, Frontier will be hosting our Annual Halloween Parade and Party, and we’d love for our parents and families to join the fun! Come celebrate with your children and enjoy the parade beginning at approximately 3:05 PM.
Parents are encouraged to dress up and participate alongside their kids — we can’t wait to see all the creative costumes!
🧡 Costume Guidelines:
Costumes should come to school in a bag and students should be able to put them on independently.
No masks, face paint, hair dye, or weapons are allowed.
Costumes are available at school for students who do not have one.
🎯 For students who prefer not to join in the Halloween-themed activities, recess games and a fall-themed classroom will be available.
We can’t wait to celebrate a safe, fun, and festive Halloween together! 🎃✨
Thank You, Frontier Families!
A huge THANK YOU to all of our amazing Frontier families for coming to Parent-Teacher Conferences over the last few days! We loved the opportunity to build relationships, celebrate your children’s successes, and work together as a team to support their growth.
Your partnership makes all the difference—Falcon families are the best!

💙💛 At Frontier, we pride ourselves on building positive relationships! One of our favorite ways to do that is through our Buddy Program — pairing up upper elementary and lower elementary classes.
Each month, buddies get together for special activities, learning, and lots of laughter. From reading stories to creating crafts, our Falcons are building friendships that make our school feel like family. 🦅✨
It’s amazing to see the older students step up as leaders and role models while the younger ones gain confidence and new friends. 💛💙

🚜🐄 Last week our 1st graders headed out to the Ag Expo hosted by the Meridian FFA Chapter! They got hands-on with farm animals, checked out some big farm equipment, and learned all about where our food comes from. 🌽🐖
The smiles say it all — from curious cows and playful pigs to giant tractors, our Falcons had a blast discovering the world of agriculture! 🌾💛

📚 Many of our Frontier teachers are taking part in a book study of Building Thinking Classrooms in Mathematics led by our Instructional Coach, Audrey Cordova.
The goal of this work is to transform classrooms from places where students passively mimic procedures into spaces where they are actively engaged in deep, collaborative, and persistent thinking. And it’s happening across our school—Falcons from Kindergarten through 5th grade are tackling thinking tasks with curiosity, determination, and creativity.
We are so proud of our students—our kids are true mathematicians! ✨➕➗

🌊 Recently, our 3rd graders worked together on a STEM challenge called “Jump the River.” Students imagined needing to cross a river, then used teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving skills to design a way to make it across. From bridges to clever jumping strategies, their ideas showed just how innovative our Falcons can be! 💡
🌄 We are so thankful for our Frontier families and the amazing expertise they share with our students! As part of the 4th grade curriculum, our Falcons have been learning about Idaho’s landforms and important geological features.
Earlier this month, we were lucky to welcome Holly Horch, author of "Hiking with Kids Idaho: 50 Great Hikes for Families". Holly visited both 4th grade classes to share her knowledge of Idaho and inspire our students to get outside and explore the beauty of our state. 🥾💛

💙 One of our favorite traditions at Frontier is our monthly family group time! Students from all grade levels come together in small groups led by a Frontier adult. Together, we share conversations, play games, and most importantly, build strong connections. 🌟
These gatherings give every child a supportive group they can count on—helping us grow a school community where everyone feels seen, valued, and connected. 💛

🌲🔥 Last week our preschoolers wrapped up Camping Week! ⛺️
They explored the color green, created fun camping-themed crafts, and even made their own solar s’mores. 🍫✨
It was the perfect mix of learning, creativity, and sweet treats!
