Gift cards will be distributed in December before winter break. If you are able to donate a gift card, please drop it at the front desk in the main office and label it for School Social Worker. Thank you in advance for your generosity!

Frost Book Fair

From December 6th to December 13th, the Frost Library will host its first book fair of the year! The Book Fair will be open during the school day from 7:15 am-2:30 pm. Book Fair proceeds directly support Frost’s library and it’s a great opportunity to visit our beautifully renovated space!  Cash, check and credit cards will be accepted, but to avoid students carrying cash, please consider setting up a Bookworm Central eWallet or using other cashless payments (ApplePay, GooglePay). The eWallet allows parents to set a spending limit for their student, but only the exact amount of the sale is charged. Click here to set up an eWallet account for yourself and your student.

Volunteers needed!! The library will need help cashiering throughout the fair, and  with takedown. Volunteers (and their students) also get 20% off any purchases!

Sign-up to volunteer for the Book Fair HERE!

Questions? Contact Jenn Ros, PTA Book Fair Chairperson, at jennifer.m.ros@gmail.com or Dawn Alexander, Frost Librarian, at dlalexander@fcps.edu

 

Join the PTA Today!

Thank you to many who joined and others who stepped up to volunteer. As we embark on another exciting school year, we invite you to make a difference for our students and teachers at Frost Middle School through Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) membership.

PTA Family Memberships are $25. Funds from PTA memberships and donations are used in support of the Frost PTA’ initiatives including our staff Grant Program. Your dollars will go directly to programs that enrich the experience of students, families, and staff here at Frost. A family membership also includes access to the Frost online student directory. Every parent/guardian who signs up for PTA membership automatically gets included in the student directory, unless you choose to opt your student out.

You can purchase your PTA membership here. Additional donations are also welcome to support the important work we do for our teachers and students!

 

Volunteers Needed for 8th Grade Celebration

We are looking for volunteers to serve on the planning team for the 8th grade celebration. We will need several dedicated individuals to make sure this event is a success! If you are interested in serving on the planning committee for the 8th grade celebration (or are interested in helping plan other events such as Bingo Night), please contact president@frostmspta.org
