District Community

Frankfort Family School Partnership (FSP)
The FSP, (formerly the PTO) has been working on behalf of District 157-C school and students for over fifty years. The FSP works through committees and volunteers to enrich the education of the children in our schools, and makes several monetary contributions to the schools. The mission of the FSP is to bring families into the school experience through volunteer opportunities and family fun events. It is our hope that no matter what your interest or schedule, there is a committee or event that may interest you. If you are able to volunteer this year and would like more information please contact one of our executive board members. (Website)

Community Relations Committee
This is a standing committee organized by the Board of Education to improve communications about the schools with the community. The committee is comprised of school and community members dedicated to improving community awareness and support of the District’s Mission by advising and assisting the school board and administration in their communications and relations with the community. Many members are key communicators who are also affiliated with other organizations throughout Frankfort. Thus, they serve as liaisons to a broad sector of the community. We encourage your support and welcome your input.
