GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I'm disappointed how easy it was to enroll my daughter under my brothers name. When I called the school about something they said they could not give me any money information because I was not listed. I have full custody. This was really upsetting.

My overall experience was great! I loved the school and sports. I was on the football team so that made the whole experience way better.

Overall, I've loved Freedom High School. I enjoy their co-op classes that allow me to work. I don't like some of the teachers. They have no concept of life and they have a hard time understanding that we're not just students and also have an outside life just like them.

Frankly, wonderful. My first two kids have been accepted to very good colleges. They are successful at college in part because of what they learned at Freedom

I have been impressed by the involvement of the teachers with ensuring the students understand their work and assignments. My child enjoys the sports and social connection with fellow students.

Freedom High School prepared my child through the honors and AP classes. She was extremely involved and the teachers became more her role models.
