Dear Frost Families,
It was another great week at Frost! On Friday, our 7th and 8th grade Student Ambassadors ventured to our District Office to represent Frost at a leadership workshop. They were able to obtain new skills and collaborate on ideas with other junior highs to improve our overall school and district. Our Girls Volleyball and Wrestling teams also began their seasons and are looking forward to continued success! We are so proud of all of our Spartan students for their continued dedication to academics and extracurricular activities at Frost!
We will continue to build upon this positive work and truly remain invested in all endeavors. Thank you all for your continued partnership to ensure student success through High Achievement and Positive Culture.
8th Grade Elective Requests – 7th Grade Students Only
Current 7th grade students are now able to select their electives through Infinite Campus for the 24-25 school year. Please click HERE for more information regarding how to enter your electives through Infinite Campus. All elective choices must be selected by Friday, January 26, 2024.
Please note that scheduling students is a complex process with over 650 students. We will try our best to give students both electives, but this may not always be possible. Students who demonstrate a pattern of falling below the 40th percentile on the reading or math NWEA assessment will be provided an acceleration course in lieu of an elective. If you have any questions, please contact the Frost Main Office at 847-357-6800.
