Alumni

Welcome home!

Frontier College alumni are an amazing group of diverse people. Some were staff with us, some were volunteers, some were Labourer-Teachers – part of the tradition that started Frontier College back in 1899. Our alumni come from all parts of the country (some are living elsewhere now), all walks of life, and their experiences with Frontier College span decades.

The stories you’ll encounter here were sent to us by people who clearly had significant experiences with Frontier College. Such stories form the tapestry of our organization. Enjoy them and please consider sending in your own Frontier College story.

Your narrative can be sent to: pfernandez@frontiercollege.ca. This space will be updated as new stories are received.
