Frontier Local School District

What Frontier Local School District does

Frontier Local School District is a K-12 public school district chartered by the State of Ohio and headquartered at 44870 State Route 7, New Matamoras, Ohio, with approximately 40 employees. It delivers compulsory public education to resident students across three campuses: a combined Frontier High/Middle School (grades 6-12), Matamoras Elementary School, and Newport Elementary School. The district's core instructional technology is a 1:1 Chromebook initiative that issues a personal device to every K-12 student — grades K-5 devices are stored in locked carts on-site, while grades 6-12 take devices home for the school year.

The district's technology stack integrates Google Apps for Education (email and collaboration), Infinite Campus (student information system, grading, attendance, parent portal), FinalForms (data collection), GoGuardian (per-user content filtering), and GoGuardian Beacon (AI-powered 24/7 monitoring for student self-harm indicators across search, document, and email content). Instructional supports include Read Naturally, Reflex/Frax, STAR, Study Island, and Xtra Math. The Technology Department, led by a Director (MISST), operates the infrastructure and runs professional development for staff. A third-party insurance partner provides optional Chromebook coverage to families.

As a public entity, Frontier does not charge tuition; operating revenue is derived from local property tax levies, Ohio state foundation funding under state funding formulas, and federal grants (including American Rescue Plan / ESSER funds). The district is governed by an elected five-member Board of Education (President Adam Snyder, Vice President Maggie McConnell, members Anthony Brooker, Jeanne Kerns, Brenda Wilson) and administered by Superintendent Beth Brown. Outreach to families and the community is conducted through the district website — which supports ten non-English languages — plus Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube channels.
