Freedom Wins the
2026 SWFL INCredible Innovation Award!

Dear Freedom Families, Friends, and Supporters,

Just how innovative are we in education?

At Freedom, we are not here simply to change the system. We are building a new one, piece by piece, pathway by pathway, student by student. We take the best educational pieces that already exist, add bold new tools like AI, combine them in creative ways, and build learning experiences that make the most sense for each individual student.

We play by the book where necessary, and color outside the lines where possible. But always, always, with the student and family at the center.

That is Freedom.

We support parent power, educational choice, flexible learning, real-world career preparation, and personalized pathways that make the education jungle easier to navigate. Instead of handing every student the same map, we help each one build a custom route toward economic freedom through learning.

And now, others are seeing it too.

In our very first year, Freedom was named one of only 25 semifinalists nationwide for the prestigious 2024 Yass Prize, recognizing education models that are Sustainable, Transformational, Outstanding, and Permissionless. That STOP model fits Freedom to the core: sustainable through school choice and smart design, transformational for families, outstanding in student outcomes, and permissionless in our belief that families should be empowered to build the education that works best for their children.

Then came our nomination for the 2026 Edison Award for Freedom AI High, another innovative iteration of our model created in response to growing demand. Freedom AI High keeps what belongs at the heart of education, human guidance, strong relationships, critical thinking, character, and purpose, while using AI to expand personalization, access, career readiness, and student opportunity.

And now, we are honored to share that Freedom has received the 2026 SWFL INCredible Innovation Award, a regional recognition of what we are building right here in Southwest Florida.

And now, others are seeing it too.

The timing could not be more exciting.

We are preparing to open our second location - Freedom Ave Maria - in August, expand full-program online access through Freedom Anywhere, and launch Freedom On Demand for homeschool families across the nation seeking individual Freedom courses.

So, how innovative are we?

We’ll let the awards, the families, the students, and the momentum answer that.

But every day, we keep asking the more important question:

How can we be better, do better, and serve better as we live out our mission of economic freedom through learning?

Thank you for believing in Freedom, cheering us on, and helping us build what education can become.

With gratitude and excitement,

Team Freedom
