CyberSecurity Club
CyberPatriot is a national youth cyber education program created in the United States to help direct students toward careers in cybersecurity or another computer, science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines. Students who participate in the Cybersecurity Club at Freehold High School compete in a series of online competition rounds where teams are given a set of virtual operating systems and are tasked with finding and fixing cybersecurity vulnerabilities while maintaining critical services.

Coding Competitions:
Students have the opportunity to join our computer science clubs and compete in coding competitions at colleges, universities, and industry leaders. We have competed at Monmouth University, Stockton University, Widener University, Rowan University, and Lockheed Martin. We have also fielded teams in the Girls Go CyberStart competitions. Additionally, we compete in various cybersecurity CTF competitions including: picoCTF (Carnegie Mellon), CSAW (NYU), RUSecure (RadfordU), UND CyberHawks national CTF (U North Dakota), and Garden State CTF (CS4NJ).
Robotics Club
Robotics Club
Our robotics club was founded by a passionate group of students in 2024. The 2025-2026 school year marked our first year of competition, with many students learning robotics from the ground up. Through self-directed learning, teamwork, and determination, students developed their technical skills while also fundraising for equipment and registration fees. We competed in three major competitions, including FIRST Tech Challenge and Botball, and earned awards at both of them. We’re building on that experience and preparing for future exciting seasons of competition.
Guest Speakers
We bring in professionals from a variety of industries and government organizations to provide students with firsthand insight into careers in computer science, cybersecurity, and emerging technologies. Recent speakers have represented Google, Microsoft, Cisco, Merck, the New Jersey Cybersecurity and Communications Integration Cell (NJCCIC), and the U.S. Department of Defense in support of the U.S. Navy at the Naval Air Warfare Center Aircraft Division (NAWCAD).
Speakers share their professional experiences, discuss diverse career pathways, and demonstrate how computer science skills are applied to real-world challenges. Presentations have included topics such as cybersecurity, emerging technologies, networking, national security, career preparation, and professional certifications.
Students also benefit from hearing from program alumni who share their experiences in the Computer Science Magnet, college, and the workforce, demonstrating that there are multiple pathways from a strong foundation in computer science to careers in technology, engineering, cybersecurity, and related fields.
