Summary

Freedom High is a large public high school serving grades 9-12 in Oakley, CA, with approximately 2,460 students, operating within the Liberty Union High district.

The school has significant strengths, including a very high graduation rate of 96.4% and English Language Arts proficiency that exceeds the state average. However, it faces notable challenges, particularly in mathematics, where proficiency is very low at 13.99%, and in chronic student absenteeism, which is higher than at many nearby schools. Its academic performance has declined over the past decade, now ranking in the 47th percentile statewide, which is a middle position within its own district. This contrasts sharply with the consistently high performance of Heritage High in the same district, and is even lower than some schools in the Antioch Unified district that serve students with greater economic need, such as Dozier-Libbey Medical High.

For parents, this means Freedom High successfully supports students to graduation but may require supplemental support in core math skills. The wide performance gap between subjects and the higher absenteeism rate are key areas the school is likely addressing. Comparing schools within the region shows that funding levels are similar, but outcomes vary greatly, suggesting factors like specialized programs, instructional methods, and attendance initiatives play a major role in student success.
