Frontier Elementary is a Title I public elementary school that is part of the Frontier School Corporation school district, located in Brookston, IN with about 372 students offering grade levels from Pre-Kindergarten to 6th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 25 teachers, Frontier Elementary has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

The facility acts as a central hub for the local community, reflecting the values and priorities of the surrounding Brookston area. By maintaining a smaller student-to-teacher ratio, the school prioritizes individualized attention and the development of strong student-teacher relationships.
