ATHLETIC SEASON PASSES
One of the biggest changes to athletics for 2021-2022 will be admission into our events. Tickets will be sold electronically, then scanned at our gates. To avoid the need to purchase tickets electronically, we will again be offering season passes to our home events. The advantage of purchasing our season passes will be to avoid paying the service fee on each individual ticket purchased for our events.
We will be offering the following passes:
Student Pass: Students will have to go into HomeTown ticketing and create their free account, and then scan their phones/ticket at the events. This information will be emailed to parents on August 16.
Senior Pass: Individuals age 60 and over can purchase a season pass for $10.00. This will allow admittance to all middle school and high school home events.
Middle School Only pass: These passes can be purchased for $20.00 and be used to enter all Middle School Sports. This pass is ONLY good for middle school home events.
All Sports Season Pass: This pass can be purchased for $60.00 and will give you access to all home sporting events for both high school and middle school.
All passes are good for one person.
WHY BUY A SEASON PASS ????
A $3.00 Middle School ticket will have a total cost of $4.39, once all electronic processing fees are included. Most middle school sports will have 5-6 home games (please check the schedule for the sport of interest). This will cost a person 6 x 4.39 = $26.34. The cost of our pass, $20.00, and you can use it to attend all home MS events.
A $5.00 high school ticket will have a total cost of $6.45, once all electronic processing fees are included. So, if you were going to attend only 10 events all year, the cost would be 10 x 6.45 = $64.50. The season pass has a cost of $60.00, but can be used for all home sports, all year long.
WHERE DO I PURCHASE MY PASSES ???
Our passes will be sold at the Middle School (Mon., 8/23 from 5:00-6:30 pm) and High School (Tue., 8/24 from 6:00-7:30 pm) open houses, and in the athletic office in the high school office during the school year. PASSES WILL NOT BE SOLD AT EVENTS. Office hours are 7:30 am to 3:30 pm, Monday - Thursday.

We are eagerly anticipating the completion of the FMHS/FHS café and serving areas. Our Nutrition Services team have worked hard to generate the funds needed to reinvest in our students. We cannot wait for the finished product.
Due to the recently issued weather alert, we are canceling meal hand out for tonight. We want to keep our staff as safe as possible. Our Nutrition Services team will hand out meals tomorrow, August 12 from 4:30-7:00 from Freeland Elementary.
Our Nutrition Services team will be handing seven days worth of free breakfast and lunch. These meals are for anyone 18 and younger. Meals can be picked up from 4:30-7:00 at Freeland Elementary school. You do not need to be a Freeland resident to participate and children do not need to be present.
Congratulations to FHS graduate Nolan Van Loo on his commitment to play baseball and study engineering at Lawrence Tech University.
Thank you to 242 Church. They spent Saturday beautifying our school grounds outside Freeland High School and the athletic complex around Falcon Stadium. We appreciate 242 as a partner and thank them for their service to our school and community.
Our lunch/breakfast application is ready to go. Though ALL meals are free to ALL students for the 2021-2022 school year, so many other school programs rely on free/reduced rates. Please take a few minutes of your time to fill out an application at www.lunchapp.com. All applications are kept confidential. Please contact Caila Wellsted, Director of Nutrition Services at wellstedc@freelandschool.net, with any questions.
Construction of the FHS/FMS cafe and serving area is right on track. We cannot wait for the finished product. This is all made possible by funds generated from the USDA from each meal a child is served. Our Nutrition Services team works hard everyday to prepare and provide meals to all children.
