Frankfort District 157-C Students Head Back To School Sept. 5

FRANKFORT, IL — Frankfort District 157-C students still have a few weeks of summer left, as the first day of school isn't until Sept. 5.

The later start date is due to construction at Chelsea Intermediate School, the District told Patch previously. The calendar will return to normal next school year.
