Expect Delays with Buses During Road Construction
You may have noticed recently that construction projects are now underway, which include occasional lane closures, as part of the 1-35/152 Hwy project. Due to this congestion, the chances of our buses having delays will likely increase. We appreciate your patience during this period.

Your Feedback Is Important to Us
This spring, Liberty Public Schools will be developing a new Strategic Plan that will be designed to guide our district in upcoming years. As part of this process, we would like to gain feedback from our stakeholder groups. Several opportunities will be provided in the coming weeks and will be publicized in our various communication outlets. At this time, however, we want to provide you with an opportunity to take our Strategic Plan Survey online. The survey takes only a few minutes to complete and may be accessed by
clicking here.
In addition, a Strategic Plan Kick-off Video has been made available and may be viewed by

Thank you for your consideration in providing us with your valuable feedback and for your continued support of Liberty Public Schools!

Students Shine at District Solo/Ensemble Festival

We celebrate all students for their work, no matter the rating, as this is part of their musical journey of preparation, more than the rating.

HMS Presents
Oklahoma!
Set in a western Indian territory just after the turn of the century, the high-spirited rivalry between the local farmers and cowboys provides the colorful background against which Curly, a handsome cowboy, and Laurey, a winsome farm girl, play out their love story. Although the road to true love never runs smoothly, with these two headstrong romantics holding the reins, love's journey is as bumpy as a surrey ride down a country road. That they will succeed in making a new life together we have no doubt, and that this new life will begin in a brand new state provides the ultimate climax to the triumphant
Oklahoma!
Performances are scheduled for April 12,13, and 14 at the Heritage Middle School Auditorium. Tickets may be purchased by
