FHS is an incredible School. I have 3 children that attend this high school and they are all very involved. One of my children has learning disabilities and is treated fairly and given all the needed extras for him to progress. Although We are trulky missing Mrs. Adamson the ESE teacher the new one Mrs. Blair seems to be having a hard time keeping up but is getting the hang of things. We love Mr. D..the new vide Principal..yet once again we miss Mr. Morello. He is now Principal at Emerald coast Middle School. The sports program is exceptional as is all the extra curricular clubs and after school clubs. Freeport is a great small town school that has expanded on alot of the curriculum offered. The teachers and staff keep parents informed and involved in every aspect of the childs education. My son used to have all F's in Algebra , but one very unique and special teacher worked so well with him, last yr he received All A's in Algebra. I stand By FHS 100%. Most likely the bad complaints are from parents with unruly students.

Freeport High School has the worst communication with parents we have ever experienced. The school goes to the point of excluding parents when it comes to making decisions that effect our children's education. The school does not make the grade especially in the management area. The principal will tell you what she thinks you want to here. It does not matter if it is the truth or something way out of bounds. This school makes uninformed changes that cost both the tax payers and the students! I would rate this as the lowest school our children have attended. The only bright side is the teachers care about the students and their progress.

Freeport high is a fantastic school, with caring, capable, hard working faculty. It is a small rural school, but this does not mean our kids suffer! on the contrary, it provides our kids lower student/teacher ratios, and the opportunity to receive extra help where needed! To those parents and students who rate this school low on involvement, get involved yourself! Two of my kids graduated from fhs, and took dual enrollment classes, which they view as a blessing! One has graduated from a four year college, and the other will graduate in the spring. My third is in dual enrollement now! Freeport has an award winning band program, a variety of boys and girls sports programs, and good natured,supportive students. I recall a much loved, popular young man, confined to a wheelchair, who was voted homecoming king by his classmates not long ago! I'm proud of all of them!

I have two children that have gone and are going to Freeport High School. We came to Freeport from a very large school in Alabama. I love the smaller classrooms and that I seethe teachers around the town and they are supportive and caring. I have teachers call when they have a concern with my child. Kids don't get lost here and they receive a good education. We have watched lots of graduations and seen the amount of scholarships our children are getting. Very impressive.

You get what your tax dollars pay for! Excellent school for the money in my opinion.

Check to see if students with disabilities are a priority because otherwise the state doesn't pay for that child to go to School if they don't have a disability your child has to be put on a waiting list for pre-k! if their not

1.Go on a tour of a school tour 2. Talk to the director (and the teacher your child will have) about what the students day like. 3. Watch school in session 4. Look out for red flags: neglected children at play, lazy, non engaging teachers
