About Our School
At Freedom Middle, we believe that academic excellence is achieved collaboratively by using data-driven instructional practices, setting high expectations, embracing diversity, and ensuring safety for all. In order to achieve these goals, we depend on the collaboration of students, faculty, staff, parents, and community members in decision-making and school activities.
We are proud to offer a diverse program of core academics, fine arts, technology, wellness, and relationship-building to our students. We understand that the middle school years are some of the most formative in a child’s life. At Freedom Middle School, we are proud of the support and opportunities we have to offer students as they prepare for high school and beyond. If you are not already a member of the FMS family, we would love for you to join us and become a Freedom Star!
