BFA Families

"Every parent's deepest wish is that their children are self sufficient, happy, and able to live a full life.'

Peter Block

Family engagement is a cornerstone of the foundation of the Baltimore Freedom Academy. Parents and guardians are welcome at the school at all times. We value your presence and your active participation in both social and academic activities. Our staff is committed to providing you and your child with a high quality public education. We know that this occurs when families are actively engaged in their child's educational experiences as partners with the school.

Give Me Five

We encourage families to particiate in the "Give Me Five" program which asks for just five hours of your time. Families can meet their five hour commitment in a variety of ways. Opportunities range from calling other families about school events to participating in a lobbying event in Annapolis. Based on your availability and interests, our volunteer committee will help match you with volunteer opportunities that support the school community.

Families in Leadership

Families are also included as active participants in school decisions, with two parents/guardians of BFA students serving on the Board of Directors. Other opportunities for leadership and participation exist within the school's parent teacher organization (PTO), the Family Empowerment Coalition (FEC)
