On April 27, Freedom hosted its third annual St. Jude Charity Prom at the Bellevue Conference and Event Center. The previous two charity proms were held at FHS. This year, the junior class officers and their sponsor, Jessica Connors, decided to add a new twist to the annual tradition by moving the dance off campus. The tradition of the charity prom was born out of the desire to raise awareness for the fight against pediatric cancer, while still maintaining the festivities of a normal high school prom. After raising approximately $32,000 for the fight against pediatric cancer, this year’s fundraising total was $45,429 , establishing a new school record. The top five online fundraisers this year were: Alexis DelVecchio, Jordyn Rubio, Frankie Moore, Erin Krobath and Lucy Strother.
