Dear Frankford Family,

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! I hope that this letter finds you well and that you have all been able to enjoy your summer thus far.

As you may have seen in media reports, our school has undergone significant renovations to ensure a safe, clean, and modern learning environment for everyone. This work is a testament to the school and district’s commitment to our community, and we are confident that our students will thrive in these improved surroundings. This year is particularly special as we celebrate a significant milestone: the 115th anniversary of our historic school.

Our staff has been working hard and can’t wait to see all of our wonderful students back in our buildings on Monday, August 25th. The doors will open for breakfast at 7:00 a.m. for all students.

To ensure a smooth start to the day, please be aware of the following important information:

  • Student IDs: All students should bring their student ID with them on the first day if they have one. This is essential for building security and timely access.
  • Student Entrance: The student entrance is located in the Oakland Street lot.
  • Cell Phone Lockers: Our new cell phone lockers are located on Harrison Street. Students will need to bring a lock for their cell phone locker or purchase one from the school for $5.
    All of the crucial information that our students and families need can be found on our website by visiting https://frankfordhs.philasd.org. It is very important that you continue to update your contact information as changes occur. Please remember to check both our website and social media accounts to stay up to date on all of the happenings at the Home of Champions!

I look forward to seeing you all at “Back to School Night” at 5PM on Wednesday, September 17, 2025.”

Respectfully Yours,

Dr. Michael J. Calderone, Principal
