Montgomery County R-II Wildcat Award, Mrs. Liz Freie
March 2026
This year’s district theme, “Be the Difference,” reminds us that every action, every smile, and every moment of care has the power to change lives. Our staff live this message every day—by inspiring curiosity in our students, supporting one another, and creating an environment where everyone can thrive.
The individual we’re recognizing today has truly been the difference—through their dedication, compassion, and unwavering commitment to our students and community. Today we honor Mrs. Liz Freie, MCE Kindergarten Teacher.
Liz Freie is an incredible kindergarten teacher whose kindness, dedication, and passion for teaching shine through every day. She creates a classroom where students feel safe, loved, and excited to learn while still being challenged to grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Her strong relationships with students and families and her ability to support even the most challenging learners truly reflect the heart of the Wildcat Award.
Our district’s mission is to create lifelong learners and productive citizens. The Wildcat Award winners support our mission by building meaningful connections, creating a supportive learning environment, and through their commitment to professional growth. Their dedication fosters a love for learning and makes our schools welcoming spaces. We are fortunate that Liz is a part of our Wildcat family!
