📢 Need a Little Motivation? Take What You Need! 💙🐾 At Freeport Middle School, we know that sometimes a few kind words can make all the difference. That’s why our guidance department has created a "Take What You Need" board in the hallway! 🎯📜 Students can grab motivational sayings whenever they need a little encouragement, positivity, or inspiration to get through the day. Whether it’s a reminder to keep pushing forward, believe in yourself, or spread kindness, there’s something for everyone! Bulldogs lift each other up! Stop by, take what you need, and pass along some positivity. 💪✨ #FMSBulldogs
