We are a learning community that believes in the ability of all students to achieve success. We start by acknowledging that each student has brilliance and strength. With this core belief, along with teaching that relies on frequent checks of student understanding, high impact feedback that is specific to the needs of each student, and authentic student engagement, each member of our school is accountable for ensuring that all students make academic strides and are prepared for success in their future endeavors.
Therefore, we commit to an education that goes beyond the teaching of content area skills and proficiencies. In addition to an enriched academic program, a well-rounded education at Liberty consists of advancing a student’s identity, intellect, criticality, and joy in order to develop citizens who are determined to make their world a better place.
