 The end of the school is fast approaching. We have had a wonderful year so far. Our teachers are teaching, our students are learning, and in some cases our children are performing in talent shows, P.T.O. and the San Antonio Spelling Bee.
We still have many activities scheduled before the end of the year. Of course, TAKS is here. Our students will be tested the week of April 28th. All 3rd through 8th will be testing that week. We will need your help as usual. Talk to them, put them to bed early, and let them have a good breakfast.
Many of our grade levels will be taking some field trips after the TAKS test. Many times they need parent volunteers. If your child gets a flyer where teachers are requesting volunteers please let them know a- head of time. We do need to do a criminal check on all volunteers.

Mission
Mission The New Frontiers Charter School was founded on the simple convictions
that a first-rate education is the birthright of every individual, that
all children can learn, and that every child should be challenged to
reach his or her full potential
Vision
Vision The School's founders aim to help set the standard and pace for public
school reform in Texas. The School will be a beacon to the
community-proof that, for less resources expended in the city's regular
public schools, every child in San Antonio can be afforded a public
education equal to the very best in the world. Representative of the
city's great diversity, the School's graduates will be prepared to
participate fully in the economy and society of our future.
