My experience with this school is horrible, disappointing and they made my child feel unwanted! Other parents feel this way too, but are afraid to speak out due to they target you children if you call them out on the truth of what’s happening in the schools. Bullying and physical assaults happen daily and the principal and staff cover it up. No supervision at recess and children get hurt. Education/learning is terrible! They push IEP’s on parents and children that really just need some tutoring which they don’t offer in any elementary schools in BASD. The best a principal they had was Mr. Quinones. The last Mr. Amato and present principal Mrs. Santanasto are not qualified for the position. Since Mr. Quinones left the teachers true colors show, they are nasty and yell at students and favor the smart kids and bully the other student’s that struggle. Staff lie and turn a blind eye and cover up bullying, protect the bullies and blame the victims. They have called family services and report false abuse on families. Basd schools don’t protect our children. The resent sexual assaults at Easthills Middle school and Freedom High amd Easton High schools, drugs also given to student by teachers. Beware and talk with your children, be involved! Don’t be afraid to speak up to protect your children!

Terrible school. The dress code is sexist, the teachers don't teach well (they give answers and don't teach), fights happen so often and the school doesn't do anything about it. Some of these fights have blood. There was a week of just fights. Three years and the only good teachers there were my seventh grade geography teacher and seventh grade ELA teacher. If you need to go to guidance, you rarely actually get to. Students are limited to having 3 passes to leave the classroom a day (leaving the classroom means going to your locker, bathroom, library, anything). If you've used up all three passes and need to use the bathroom, then oh well. A year or two prior, there were maggots in the milk and food. The lockers are too small to fit anything and a year ago there were ants in the lockers.

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
