This is my 2nd child to attend freedom high, and I have been very satisfied with their progress. We moved to this area 13 years ago and one of the reasons was the schools. I am happy we chose this area!!

I have taught here for 11 years and wouldn't want to be anywhere else. We have an amazing staff that puts kids first: and the kids--awesome. Caring, compassionate, spirited are just a few of the words that describe our school. We're always working hard to improve, and everyone's involved in the process. I love this place!

Speaking both as a parent and teacher, I feel that Freedom has the most to offer students as they move from high school to college and/or career. The staff (administration, certificated and classified) all have the best interest of the student in mind. The students are great and work hard. Freedom is a great school to be at!

Teachers, counselors, administration, students all work together. Everyone supports one another and we have great team work.

The staff works very hard, individually and collectively, on the behalf of their students. When students show difficulty in comprehension of a subject/concept, the staff collaborates in ways of improving/diversifying dissemination of information to meet the needs of those students.

The students are caring and generous with each other. The teachers and staff are the most dedicated I have ever worked with.

My student feels valued as a student, challenged as a student and comes to school feeling safe and confident all staff are working on her behalf. She has excelled and is prepared for the next level of education.

Freedom is a school of pride. Students are proud to be from this school. It is always excelling in the education and safety of the students, so that together everyone achieves more. It is community minded. I had 2 of my children graduate from Freedom H.S. and they both have nothing but praise for this school and the excellent education they got here. I have worked here for over 12 years and I think there is no better school in the district or in the state of California.

Why do you love Freedom High School? Freedom has a caring and compassionate staff that focuses on students. Freedom challenges students, but provides many opportunities and interventions for students to succeed. Pride and enthusiasm resonate from students, staff, and the community in reference to Freedom.

My kids have gone to Freedom for two years now. I am impressed with the staff and I have always felt they have cared for the kids. My kids are not angels and I feel the VP have been fair and unbiased in their consquences. I feel my kids have become better students attending freedom.

I attended Freedom for all 4 years of high school. And I absolutly loved it. Every one of my teachers were great and gave the extra help when I needed it. There are a lot of clubs and sports, just not alot of people take advantage of joining them. I recomment getting involved in the clubs and leadership and sports there. It makes the whole experience a lot more enjoyable. I have noticed that now that I have graduated though, that the school is facing more and more problems with gang violence. Which is sad, but they are trying their best to deal with it.

Wow. I totally disagree with some of these comments. We recently moved here from Antioch and my children attend Freedom and they love Freedom. The teachers the sports programs the principal assigned to them called them directly and helped put them on the right path. We have had nothing but great postive experience with Freedom High I feel the staff and kids really care about their school.

I do agree that Freedom High School does have it's problems, I just wonder when it became the principals job to stop your son/daughters problems? His job is to control the issues at Freedom, yes. But there are to many finger pointing parents at Freedom

Test scores are now up and Freedom just earned 'California Distinguished School' status. But don't be fooled. Do your homework on this school.
