Freeland Community School District

FHS is joining the many schools using their facilities to recognize Seniors. We will be lighting up Falcon Stadium on Monday, April 20, 2020, at 8:20 p.m. (20:20 military time) for 20 minutes, 20 seconds, to acknowledge the Class of 2020, their contributions to our school, and to let them know we are thinking of them. Though Falcon Stadium will be closed during this time, the lights will be visible from Webster Road and the FHS parking lot. Families are welcome to stay in their cars and come see the lights.

We worked out yesterday, and are being thoughtful today...

Sadly, the Saginaw County Mall Art Show was cancelled. In lieu of the mall display I have created a virtual show to recognize the works I was able to collect before we parted ways. Great job! Keep practicing! https://youtu.be/IOFjM9VcvW8

Freeland is looking for a Varsity Volleyball Coach for the 2020-21 School Year. Do you know the right person to lead our Falcons?

FHS Senior Tyler McLaren qualified as the alternate to take the 2020 National Chemistry Exam for the Chemistry Olympiad, missing the cut by 1 point. This is a tremendous accomplishment. Great work Tyler!

We appreciated your Color on Monday (look for the post later today) and cannot wait to see your pets/stuffed animals on Tuesday.

We have been made aware of a "College Board" scam, where parents of students who have taken the SAT/PSAT are contacted/called by a "representative from the College Board" asking for credit card information for "test prep materials." This is not legit.

Huge Freeland THANK YOU to Duro-Last for providing masks for our Nutrition Services workers. They not only make great roofing systems, they help out their community. We are very grateful!

Due to challenges regarding children congregating at our schools, especially our fields, beginning immediately, and in effect throughout the State of Michigan's "stay-at-home" order, we are not allowing students on school property without one of their parents present. We have begun communicating this today, and will have signs up on Monday. Please share this information with others as we cannot have groups of children coming together like this. We hope this eliminates the problem, while still allowing families to use our facilities while practicing appropriate social distancing.

Attention FHS parents/students: The yearbook wants to capture the meaningful experiences of our students. as they stay home & stay safe! Share a description (20-45 words) & picture to Ms. Krygier at krygierk@freelandschools.net. We look forward to seeing what everyone has been doing! DEADLINE: April 24.
