Before the establishment of the Town of Freedom on June 5, 1853, evidence suggests that this community was named Sagole or Sagola, a Native American[ clarification needed] word meaning "good morning". Further, this name's use fell out of favor after the name of the surrounding town was established, and the community began using the name Freedom as well. [3] [4] Freedom is home to a very successful high school as well. They have won many state championships.
