Dear Frontier Families,

Thank you for a wonderful first semester. We hope you enjoy the next two weeks with friends and family.

A few things to keep in mind:

The grading deadline was December 6th. Thank you to all who turned in grade reports.

If your student is starting a new class in January, make sure you have an ILP in for the spring semester.

ASD classes begin January 6th.

If you have questions or concerns during Winter Break, email Carli at hook_carli@asdk12.org. We will check email regularly and get back to you as soon as we can.

Attention Frontier Charter Families:

Your ASD nursing team offers free vision and hearing screenings annually for both in person and remote students. If you haven't taken advantage of it yet this year and would like your student(s) to participate, please contact me to schedule a day that works best for you: winfree_lanaee@asdk12.org or 907-742-5851. If Ocean View Elementary is not convenient, I can help coordinate with your closest school.

Lanaee Winfree, BSN, RN, NCSN
