Dear Frost Families,
We have had a wonderful December at Frost allowing us to highlight our commitment to High Achievement and Positive Culture. Students and staff continue to remain invested as we approach Winter Break, and we look forward to finishing Frost Strong by showcasing student success through our spirit week and winter assembly next week.
On behalf of the Frost Staff, we would like to wish everyone a happy and safe holiday season.
Frost Arrival / Drop Off Procedures
With the weather getting colder, we wanted to remind everyone of the drop off procedures in the morning. If you are dropping your student off before school, please make sure that your student does not get out of the car until they are on the school side of the parking lot. No students should be walking through the parking lot as it is too dangerous and also impedes the flow of traffic.
Also as a reminder, the door by the parking lot will be closed at 7:38 am since any students who enter after that will not be able to get to their lockers and get to class on time. After 7:38, you will be directed to drive to the front of the building and drop your student off by the office. Thank you so much for your cooperation in keeping our students safe!

No Food Deliveries Allowed
With a focus on student and staff safety, District 54 will not allow food delivery services (including, but not limited to, GrubHub, DoorDash, and local restaurants) to our schools. We will continue to have hot lunch days, which are planned events, organized and supervised by school or PTA volunteers. However, we will no longer accept other outside food deliveries to keep our schools secure.
District 54 Virtual Backpack
District 54 shares information about community events with our students and families through our Virtual Backpack. We know that parents are interested in extracurricular activities. At the same time, we don’t want the homework, letters from the teachers, school news and other important district information to get lost among the countless other pieces of paper in our students’ backpacks.
