My daughter is in their special education program and she has progressed so much since going there. The teachers are dedicated to seeing her succeed. I am pleased that they challenge her academically. The principal is great as well. He ensures that as a parent you are satisfied with the education you child is recieving at Hill Freedman. Thanks to Hill Freedman and the hard work of my daughter she has made the honor roll!!!!

As the parent of a recent graduate or Hill-Freeman, I can say that I am glad that my child went there. The teachers there are outstanding and really care about the children and their growth. The principal can be difficult at times, but has the best interest of his student's always in mind. The curriculum was both challenging and rewarding and my child benefited from this greatly. This school is a great example of what a learning community should be.

Hill Friedman has small, learning oriented classes and teachers that interact with every student. Their curriculum is challenging and helps children prepare for their future in high school and college.

I am a 7th grader and we are learning a lot. The teachers make learning fun. They help the students when we are in need of help. I just really like this school. The principle- Mr.Majewski- is very serious about learning and will do what ever he can to attract the students to learning. I never thought learning would be fun.

I love this school. It has done great things for African American students. They believe in us and expect the best from every student. We are encouraged to compete and be number one. I know I will get into a good high school next year because of my teachers and the principal

This school is very unique. It has a wide mix of students from gifted to profoundly impaired. The principal sets very high standards for all the students and sees to it that all students are provided equity. I have never seen a parent volunteer in this building and I have taught there for a very long time. Parents are welcome but like most inner city schools they just drop them off at the door. At this magnet school parents have choices. Disgrutal parents should exercise their options. They never due because it is the best school in town with quality leadership and a caring staff.
