Inspiration and Invitation - Updated Meeting Times

On behalf of the Freedom Middle School PTA, I would like to say thank you to all of the parents and teachers who attended our PTA meeting and Black History Program.  The students need opportunities to shine, and they need an audience to encourage them.  Thank you for being the vehicles of encouragement.  I look forward to seeing you all at our next meeting and Poetry Café on Tuesday, March, 18, 2014 at 5:00 pm.   We will have our meeting from 5:00-5:30 in the library, and we will conclude with our event from 5:30 - 7:00 in the cafetorium.   Please subscribe to this blog for updates, and call us if you would like to volunteer. 

In addition, I would like to personally thank all of the teachers and staff who nominated me as the 2014 Teacher of the Year for Freedom Middle School.  It is indeed one of the highest honors that I could have ever dreamt of receiving.   I promise you that I will not let you down.

Last, I would like to recognize Mrs. Berry for winning the auxiliary employee of the year for Freedom Middle School.  You are one of the nicest and hardest working people who I know.  Thank God Avondale closed so that you could come to Freedom. 


I leave you with an inspirational message from one of the best teachers in the country, Rafe Esquith, the author of "Teach Like Your Hair is on Fire."  Please take the time to listen to his message.  Have a great evening.


S. Bridges-Mathieu
Freedom Middle School PTSA Secretary
