November News
Note from Miss Rutan:
Our fall fundraiser was a HUGE success. Our PTO was able to raise over $6,000 for the school. This was remarkable and we appreciate all that participated.
Frontier staff have been working hard on writing this year. It has been one of our big goals, to help build a system for writing that progresses cohesively throughout all grade levels. Over Thanksgiving break, we have Fall Writing Challenge for our students to participate in. If they complete the challenge and return their work, they will receive a prize. We love to see our students participate in our break activities throughout the year and I'm excited to see the work they produce.
If you have any questions, or concerns please contact me at rutan.katie@westada.org or by phone at (208) 350-4190.
Sincerely,
Katie Rutan
Principal

Parking Lot Procedures
* Please remain in your vehicle during pick up and drop off. If your child needs assistance, please park and walk them to the sidewalk. This helps keep the line moving for all of our families.
*If a staff member is waving you ahead, please pull forward to allow more cars up to the front drop off and pick up area.
*Children enter at the front of the parking lot and not on the sides, this is for safety. We have numbered signs to help efficiently have students ready for when their parents' car pulls up.
