*As well as being a guidance counselor, he also has other duties such as overseeing detention, ("Spaghetti Western and Meatballs," "The Runway Club," "Large Brother Where Fart Thou?"), teaching child rearing ("O.T.: The Outside Toilet") and overseeing the Hormone-iums vocal group.
*He is a former student of Wagstaff School as shown in a flashback in "Y Tu Ga-Ga Tambien" and in "The Secret Ceramics Room of Secrets" where it was revealed that he was elected seventh grade class secretary after hiding votes for his opponent, Dave Titus, in the secret room. Frond was in seventh grade in 1983, likely being 12 or 13 at the time, suggesting a 1970-71 birthdate. Since the show takes place in the present and most characters remain the same age as they did 2011, he is likely 40 or 41.
*The sound of Tina's groans make him queasy. ("Midday Run")
*Tina thinks he looks like Bill Gates. ("Ex MachTina")
*He bears a strong resemblance to Michael Bolton, one of the main characters from the 1999 movie Office Space. Both characters are played by David Herman.

*Mr. Frond has the most redesigns in the series with it being two.
*In various situations, he never seems to be on good terms with Wagstaff's Principal Spoors or the Superintendent. In "Synchronized Swimming," the school board cuts independent study. In "The Runway Club," Principal Spoors informs Frond of his disapproval to "Scared Fabulous," warning him not to call on the weekends; he most likely did not have the authority from Principal Spoors to have the kids redo the school's mile run, and in "The Frond Files," he mentions to Bob & Linda how he is on thin ice with the superintendent because his "credentials aren't valid in the state."
*Despite claiming to not eat meat in "Crawl Space," he eats spaghetti and meatballs in "Spaghetti Western and Meatballs" and is seen attending Lobsterfest in the episode "Lobsterfest."
*Frond has appeared in every season with the exception of Season 14, although he gets mentioned in "Bully-ieve It or Not."
