Frontier is an amazing school where my kids have learnd so much they have had perfect grades sence atending this school and they do their home work. When they come home they cant stop talking about what they did and what they learnd and what new friends they had made. This year my oldest started middle school and is doing better then it elmentary ahd is making everyone proud I don't know how we got by at the old school and I hope that everone can con sitter frontier as a posible school for their childen to learn grow and live. The teachers are finominal they have given my son with a disibillty one on one attenchon that he needs and you see him smille more and more every day. I can only cry to say that my job is taking us away from the state.

Frontier high school is a great school. Top notch teachers and excellent programs. Extracurricular activities are plentiful, and the music and arts programs are second to none.

I am a student not a teacher. My time at Frontier was great. Both the teachers and students are very nice. Frontier is a good school for academics and extra-cirricular activities. I dis-agree with the person who said 'it is hard to get on a sports team'. The coaches are fair when picking the players for there team. However I do agree that the lockers are small. I spent my time at Frontier playing sports and studing. The tests are all right not too hard. I liked Frontier and I hope that you do too.

Frontier is an excellent school. My kids go there, and I went there. The teachers are very knowledgable and teach at the students level. There are many after school activities such as football, chess club, drama club, etc. There is something for everybody. In fact, frontier is one of only appx. 25 % of schools that have physical education more than 2 times a week.

Frontier High School has 1640 students, which is too large. Students get lost in the shuffle. It is hard to join a sports team, the school play, musical etc. because of the number of students competing. They should break it up into smaller schools or at least set up two separate 'houses' to make it a more personal experience. The teachers and staff are very helpful to parents who stay involved. There are many course offerings and AP courses available. They are also very proactive about the whole college application process. So it comes down to size vs. variety of offerings. It all depends on what each individual child needs.

I really enjoyed my time as a student here. The only thing I did not like was that the lockers were too small. Also you did not have enough time to get from one class to your locker to your other class. Other than that I was happy going to frontier. Now that I have kids they are going to go to Frontier schools too.

First of all, I'm a student not a parent. Any school is what you make of it, and Frontier allows you the opportunities to make the most of your High School education. The administrators, teachers, and staff truly want to make the school a better place, and there are a multitude of ways for students to get involved. I was the vice-president of student government and involved in a number of other activities that allowed me to work hand-in-hand with district administration and I cannot say enough good things about the quality of the personel and their constant struggle to make Frontier the best district in WNY. The district actively works to include students, parents and other community members in decisons reguarding the education of students and the direction of the district. Go to the school's website and look no further than the Strategic Planning Initiative. A+

Frontier is normaly pleasant. Many sports and clubs that the students can become involved in. Most of the teachers have been very nice and understanding, the princial Mr. Baumann is also a very nice man as well as the consulers and staff. I feel pretty safe there although there has been a few 'scares' while I attended Frontier. I do not like the idea of the students having to swim in the school pool for gym class, It should be an option and no be required for gym class. Overally I would have to say that Frontier is a good school.
