Introducing Milk Caps For Mooola!

general info
Longmont Dairy has helped over 400 schools with their Milk Caps for Mooola fundraising program. When you save and deposit your Longmont Dairy milk caps into one of the two Milk Caps for Mooola bins, Aurora Frontier will receive $.05 per cap!
Please help by saving your caps and filling up our fundraising bins all year long. This money will go a long way to help the PTO fund programs for our school.
Bins are located near the lost and found and near the recess doors next to the preschool classroom. If you have questions, please send us a message at FrontierPTOPresident@gmail.com

2022-2023 Year End Summary

general info

After being sidelined by COVID, the Frontier PTO came into the 2022-2023 school year with renewed energy and excitement! Through our six Falcon Family Fun Nights, the Frontier community raised nearly $1,700. The Creepy Coins Fundraiser netted just under $2,600! These fundraisers along with t-shirt sales of $105 raised $4,395!

PTO was able to use this money to provide an in-school Veteran’s Day celebration, a January movie night, March read-a-thon + Barnes & Noble gift cards, two 8th grade scholarships, and to celebrate our remarkable teachers during teacher appreciation week with a treat bar and customized canvas tote bag.
