Middle School Leadership Class Visits the Freeland Learning Center
We wanted to thank Mrs. Freel and her Middle School Leadership Class for taking the time to come and read to our Freeland Learning Center students — what a treat it was to have them visit our school!
Their presence brought so much excitement and joy to our classrooms. Our students were absolutely thrilled to spend time with the middle school students, and it was heartwarming to see the connections that were made. We are so fortunate to have such positive role models, who while engaging with the students showed kindness, leadership, and a genuine enthusiasm making a lasting impression.
It’s moments like these that remind us how powerful it can be when older students share their time and talents with the younger students in our district. They have inspired our students more than they will ever know, and we hope they enjoyed the experience just as much as our students did.
Thank You to Our Amazing Administrative Professionals!
Thank you for being the heart of our school. Your dedication, kindness, and tireless efforts keep everything running smoothly. From welcoming students and families with a warm smile, to managing endless tasks with grace and efficiency, you are truly the glue that holds our school community together. You juggle a hundred responsibilities each day — phone calls, paperwork, band-aids, schedules, and so much more — all while offering calm and care to anyone who walks through the office doors. Your work may not always be seen, but it is deeply appreciated and absolutely essential. On behalf of the entire Freeland Learning Center school community, we thank you for all you do. You make a difference every single day!
Our students had an amazing time celebrating Earth Day with a full day of outdoor fun, hands-on learning, and activities that showed love for our planet. Highlights of the day included:
Learning lessons outside in the fresh air
Cleaning up around our school grounds
Planting trees and decorating pots
Creating Earth Day crowns
Playing the “Roll & Color: Earth Day” games
It was a joyful celebration filled with creativity, teamwork, and a strong sense of environmental responsibility. We're so proud of our young eco-heroes for their enthusiasm and care for the world around them!
Today, students at the Freeland Learning Center embraced their uniqueness in the most colorful way possible during Down Syndrome Awareness Day's Crazy Sock Day!
The halls were filled with all kinds of colorful, mismatched, and creative socks, each pair a symbol of individuality and joy. It was amazing to see the students proudly showcasing their personalities through their sock choices while spreading love and awareness of our unique qualities. It was a beautiful reminder that we are all different in our own special ways, and that uniqueness is something to celebrate! Thank you to everyone who participated in making this day so memorable and full of positivity. Way to go little Falcons!
Last week, the first-grade students were fortunate to have a special visitor share her musical talents with the class. The inspiring future music educator, Miss Broersma, brought her cello to the music class, offering the students a wonderful opportunity to explore a new instrument. The students were thrilled to learn more and even had the chance to ask questions! A big thank you to Miss Broersma for sharing her talents with the young musicians!
St. Patrick's Day was a fantastic celebration at the Freeland Learning Center! The students looked wonderful in their festive green attire, and some even had the exciting opportunity to design their own Leprechaun traps. It was a fun and creative way for them to apply the skills they've developed in the STEM maker space centers. What a memorable and engaging experience for everyone!
Exciting News from Freeland Learning Center!
Today was a day full of joy and excitement as our kindergarten students picked out their very own special reading pillow—and a book to go with it! Thanks to the incredible generosity of Lady Jane's Quilt Shop and the talented volunteers from the St. Agnes Sewing Ministry, our young Falcons now have a cozy, personalized pillow to take with them wherever they go, making reading even more fun and special.
The beautiful pillows were made possible by the generous pillow donations from Lady Jane’s Quilt Shop, and the fabric donation from the members of St. Agnes Sewing Ministry, who alongside customers from Lady Jane’s Quilt Shop sewed these treasures with love.
Now, our kindergartners can enjoy their reading adventures in any corner of the school—or even at home! Thank you to everyone who made this meaningful gift possible! Your kindness is helping nurture a lifelong love of reading in our students. Let’s keep encouraging our young Falcons to keep soaring through books and exploring new worlds!

It was an exciting day at the Freeland Learning Center today. The students participated in a celebration of the Freeland Wrestling Team as they move onto State Finals this weekend. The students were able to cheer the team on as they stopped by our building earlier today. We wish them all the best this weekend. Go Falcons!!!
Freeland Learning Center students had a lot of fun celebrating the 100th day of school. They got to celebrate this milestone while at the same time practiced some of the skills they learned over their 100th day in school. What a great way to learn and have fun!
Mrs. Johnson's students enjoyed a visit from Blue, one of our therapy dogs, and his handler. The excitement on their faces and the expression on the dog's face warmed our hearts. What a great way to end such a cold week.
After exploring the various elements that make up a community, Kindergarten students created their own vibrant and imaginative communities. Here, students from Miss Coffin’s and Mrs. Peter’s classes proudly showcase their work, bringing their learning to life. What a wonderful way to demonstrate their knowledge and creativity!
It sure was a fun week at the Freeland Learning Center. With a fun spirit week concluding with a pajama day! We were pleasantly surprised today with a special visitor. We want to wish all of you the best the special season has to offer and all the best for a healthy and happy New Year, 2025!
Freeland Learning Center would like to highlight one of our kindergarten teachers, Ms. Coffin. Thank you for your commitment to our students and your kindergarten team.
Thank you Mrs. Wirsing and 6th grade leadership team for helping our students decorate the hallways with beautiful bows, as we spread some holiday cheer. We are grateful for your help and appreciate your kind gesture. Thank you also for helping us as we gift wrapped our Frosty Shoppe purchases. You are great role models for us! We will add more bows to our hallways on Monday, so students who forgot to bring one in today still have time to bring one in next week.
It was a great day to be a Falcon today! Not even a snow day could take the Frosty Shoppe experience away from our Freeland Learning Center students. With the help of Ms. Elan Stavros Nichols and the crew of her parent volunteers, the PTO was able to offer all of our students a holiday shopping experience. It was evident from the huge smiles on the students’ faces how much joy this experience brought to them. Thank you everyone for your flexibility and dedication to make sure all of the students got to shop today! We are thankful for your gift of time!
