A Message from Frankfort CUSD #168. We will have regular dismissal and buses will run on their regular schedule today, Wednesday, May 8, 2024. If weather conditions warrant at that time, we will hold buses longer and will send a message letting everyone know that at that time.

Final Update from Frankfort CUSD #168 Re: Denning Elementary School Water situation. Thanks to the West Frankfort Water Department, water service HAS BEEN RESTORED to Denning School. Therefore, SCHOOL WILL BE in SESSION at DENNING and ALL SCHOOLS in the FCUSD #168 area on Thursday, April 25, 2024. Denning and the surrounding neighborhood are under a boil water order and we will be making arrangements to work through that as we welcome students back in the morning. Again, we thank everyone who helped make for a smooth dismissal today. We have seen our students shine in these situations in several schools at several times this year.
