FAmily Connections
FIELDTRIPS: At Freedom, one of our goals is to provide opportunities for homeschool families to get out and explore Florida together. Fieldtrips will be available to our FCA families and additional homeschool families throughout the year at additional costs.
PARK DAYS: At Freedom, we love recess. Since we have a release time of noon, we encourage our FCA families to use these days as park/picnic days with other FCA or homeschool families. You never know when a FCA teacher might join in on the fun!
