Thanks to all who attended and supported the Harvest Festival and Health and Safety Fair!
Our second executive session of the school year included an informative presentation on the details of our K-12 counseling services and concurrent enrollment opportunities through UNC and Aims. We are very excited about both of these programs, and we are very fortunate to have such a strong team of counselors available to help our students.
Construction continues to progress on the Press Box building at the secondary and we are excited to have it functional for the Homecoming activities this week.
Financial Audit is underway and we will present the findings at an upcoming board meeting.
📌 Our next meeting will be held on October 5 at the Secondary Library.
Keep bringing in coins and dollar bills!
💲 Coin War ends on September 14th! 💰

Crosswalk Safety-Secondary Families
A Note From Mr. Pillard, Secondary Security
IMPORTANT - Secondary Campus: It's essential that all students utilize the crosswalk during drop-off and pickup times. Our staff regularly monitors the driveline to ensure students follow the rules in maintaining their safety before and after school. Our number one concern: Nobody should be crossing the road (driveline), other than the designated crosswalk. Crossing in hazardous areas can potentially cause an unfortunate situation for someone getting struck by a moving vehicle. Parents who follow the same set of rules, not only set a great example for their own kids, but for other students as well, and we thank you for doing that. So please have that conversation with your child and encourage them to use the crosswalk. Thank you.
education of EVERY student at our school.

At Frontier Academy, we are committed to elevating the stories of these movements and the voices of those involved. We intend to communicate these celebrations over email, by creating educational bulletin boards and including information in short announcements in order to empower the Frontier Academy community.
