Dear Freedom Family,
As I begin my fifth year as Principal of Freedom High School, I continue to feel honored and inspired to lead such a vibrant and dedicated school community. Each new school year brings fresh energy and opportunities—and I’m excited for all that lies ahead in 2025–2026.
Summer offers a chance to pause and reflect, but it also reminds us how much we miss the energy of our students and staff. The empty halls are a quiet contrast to the excitement I know we’ll soon experience together—in classrooms, on the stage, on the field, and throughout our school.
Freedom’s newly-renovated auditorium is just about ready to officially open, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome our school community into the refreshed space. This long-anticipated project brings updated seating and flooring, improved lighting, and a more modern, comfortable environment for performances, assemblies, and events. The renovation reflects our commitment to the arts and to providing students with high-quality spaces to learn, perform, and celebrate their talents.
This fall, we’re thrilled to welcome our new staff members and 440 incoming 9th graders into our Freedom Family. Whether you’re new to Freedom or returning for another year, I hope you’re as excited as I am to create new memories and achieve great things together.
Let’s make this school year one of connection, growth, and success—for every student, every staff member, and our entire community.
With gratitude and anticipation,
Ms. Laurie Sage
