Dear Liberty High Community,
The year is going by so quickly and all the students are working hard. By the time you read this newsletter we will have 7 school days until the Thanksgiving Break and after the break we will only have 3 weeks (15 school days) until the end of the semester. Please, make sure you are checking in with your student weekly and discussing their progress.
Do not hesitate to call your students counselor or teacher with any questions that you may have. More college and skill building trips are being scheduled by the staff. Students, make sure that you are paying attention in class to those announcements to secure these special opportunities.
Please, pay attention to the announcements below that indicate our holidays during this festive season.
Have a blessed day, Dr. Christmas
