Dear Liberty Middle School Parents,

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer. I am so excited to begin this new journey at Liberty Middle School and to be able to do it with an outstanding staff, talented students, and a wonderful community!

Our dedicated staff has been working diligently for the last two years to prepare for this transition and we are all ready to get going and begin creating beautiful memories together. On behalf of the Liberty Middle School staff, I'd like to officially welcome you to Liberty Middle School!

Respectfully,

Mike Hamacher, LMS Principal

WE WANT TO BRING TO YOUR ATTENTION THAT STUDENTS ARE NOT PERMITTED TO RIDE THE BUS HOME WITH FRIENDS THAT DO NOT SHARE THE THE SAME DESIGNATED BUS ROUTE. THE DECISION HAS BEEN MADE WITH THE UTMOST CONCERN FOR THE SAFETY OF ALL OUR STUDENTS.
