The district was created in the 1950s to serve as a main school district along the edge of Lake Erie, in suburban Buffalo, New York. Currently there are four elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. All of the schools in the district are located outside of the village of Hamburg because Hamburg Central School District services the students there. The Frontier District Music Department also hosts an annual event known as a "Spectrum Concert", which showcases all of the band, orchestra, or chorus students in the District. This concert is held at Frontier Central High School.
