Families in the Freedom area are served by three schools in the Freedom Area School District: Freedom Elementary (PK–5, 691 students), Freedom Middle (6–8, 339 students), and Freedom High (9–12, 510 students), totaling 1,540 students. The district is ranked 79th of 432 districts in Wisconsin — the 82nd percentile, with 4 stars — and all three schools currently hold 4-star ratings.
Freedom Middle is the academic standout: ranked 81st of 643 (87th percentile), with an overall listed proficiency average of about 72.1% versus a comparable state average of about 55.5%, and the district's largest year-over-year gain, about 8.4 points. Freedom High leads on completion, with a 99.1% graduation rate and 0.2% dropout rate, plus strong ACT English Language Arts (60.17% vs. 48.47% state) and 10th Grade Forward Social Studies (56.49% vs. 48.25%). Freedom Elementary, the largest school, has the best attendance at 8.8% chronic absenteeism and solid mathematics results.
Attendance is a district-wide strength: 11.2% chronic absenteeism versus 17.3% statewide, with Elementary lowest at 8.8%, High at 12.6%, and Middle at 13.4%. Middle posts the highest proficiency while having the lowest per-student spending ($12,633) and the highest absenteeism; High has the highest spending ($16,669), and student-teacher ratios are nearly identical across the three schools (13.5–13.7). Note that proficiency averages here are simple unweighted averages of the listed test cells, and ACT and Forward Exam scores are not directly comparable.
