🎃🍂 Thanksgiving Fun in Preschool! 🍂🎃
Before heading off for Thanksgiving break, Ms. Erlinda's preschoolers had a sweet and cozy day in class! They made their very own pumpkin pies 🥧 and enjoyed them together while watching a festive movie. Such a fun way to kick off the holiday season!
We’re so thankful for these little moments of joy. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! 🦃❤️
🦃 Thanksgiving Break Reminder 🍂
Just a friendly reminder that there will be no school the week of November 25th as we celebrate Thanksgiving Break. Classes will resume on Monday, December 2nd.
As we reflect during this season of gratitude, we want to say how thankful we are for our incredible Frontier Community—students, families, and staff who make our school so special. 💙
We hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with joy, love, and plenty of pie! 🥧 See you all in December!
At Frontier Elementary, building positive relationships is at the heart of everything we do. To make our community even stronger, we’ve created Frontier Families—small, cross-grade groups of 5-7 students paired with one dedicated adult mentor.
These "families" include students from all grades and are led by a mix of our amazing staff: teachers, assistants, administrators, cafeteria workers, and more. Together, we’re creating connections that foster belonging, mentorship, and teamwork across the entire school!
Today, we kicked off this exciting initiative with a "get-to-know-you" session, and it was a blast! We’re already looking forward to our next Frontier Family gathering in December.
Thank You, Frontier Families! 🍂✨
A huge THANK YOU to everyone who joined us for Fall Family Night last week! 🎉 We were blown away by the amazing turnout. It was heartwarming to see so many families playing games, solving puzzles, reading in flashlight forts, and just spending quality time together.

Yesterday, our 5th graders shared a heartwarming Veterans Day performance with the residents of Salmon Creek Gracious Retirement Living!
