What is Freedom Academy?
How it Works
Freedom Academy is open to students between their junior and senior years of high school. All students with demonstrated leadership potential are encouraged to apply, though participation is limited to one or two students per school.
"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it was once like in the United States when men and women were free."
— Ronald Reagan
