Freedom High School – "Home of the Irish" 

Welcome to the home of the Freedom Irish and thank you for visiting our website.  Our school takes great pride in our students, community, and in our commitment to excellence, and we value having you as one of our partners.  In order to maintain a successful high school environment, it is essential for students, educators, parents, and community members to work collaboratively to create an atmosphere where young men and women can grow academically and socially in a safe and healthy learning environment.  Education is a community endeavor and we encourage you to become involved in our school and help us in providing a world class education to the students of Freedom High School.

We are committed to providing a progressive curriculum designed to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century.  Our emphasis on rigor and relevancy in every course helps us as we support students in pursuing their academic and vocational interest to the fullest.

Freedom also offers an abundance of extracurricular and co-curricular activities.  Research supports that students who are involved in activities beyond the school day perform better academically, behaviorally, and socially.  We strongly encourage every student to participate in their school environment and make the most of their high school experience. 

If at any time you have concerns or questions about this high school or fantastic community which we are proud to be part of, please do not hesitate to contact me.

District Educational Philosophy

The Board of Education and the Staff of the Freedom Area School District believe that education is a lifelong process that does not end when school is left behind.  Education is held to be a cooperative effort among school, home and community which emphasizes learning as a continuing process to help ensure the best educational performance by our students.  We believe our students should learn from the past, meet the challenges of the present and be ready to cope with their future responsibilities in a democratic society.
 

Mission Statement

The mission of the Freedom Area School District is to
develop in our youth a continuing desire to learn.
To this end, educational programs which fit the
appropriate developmental abilities, needs, and interests
of our students will be provided on an equal basis.
With this goal in mind,
appropriate academic, cognitive, emotional,
physical, social and vocational skills
will be developed in our students.
