Want To Support Our Teachers?
As we approach the winter break, we want to take a moment to show our appreciation for the amazing teachers here at Liberty Middle School! To send them off with gratitude, we are hosting a Teachers Winter Celebration on Thursday, December 19th. This event is a chance for us to express our thanks and celebrate all their hard work before we meet again in January.
To make this event even more special, we are inviting families to donate gift cards to be raffled off during the gathering. Any amount, starting as low as $5, would be greatly appreciated. Your contributions will allow us to offer a fun and thoughtful gesture of appreciation to our dedicated staff of 102 teachers.
Please drop off gift cards at the main office or send them with your student in a sealed envelope to be delivered to the main office by Monday, December 16th.
Suggested Gift Cards:
Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to giving back to our incredible teachers.

Please consider helping the Liberty Library by purchasing off our Amazon wish list. Students love to use these items in the library makerspace and during lunches. Additionally, if you have MagnaTiles or PicassoTiles that your family is no longer using, I would love them for the library!
