Liberty is a fantastic school if you're looking for a really good education. It has an amazing faculty and course structure. It's small, so everyone knows everyone else. Everyone who goes to Liberty wants to be there, which is really nice because it creates an supportive and academic environment. The people at Liberty are really nice, and it's easy to make friends. It has a pretty good variety of classes, although most of the focus is on STEM. There isn't a big variety of art classes or languages, although there are some. The English classes at Liberty are fantastic, and possibly the best part of the whole school.
However, if you want to do a lot of extra curriculars outside of school, Liberty is probably not the school for you. Time spent doing homework can range anywhere from one hour (on a good day) to four hours. It can be really hard to balance school life with just life. Liberty is a lot of work. I would say it's worth it!

I have attended Liberty Common Charter School for five years. I have very much enjoyed the experience and have grown as a person not only educationally but also in character. The school's motto is "Common virtue, common knowledge, common sense." They teach kids virtues by targeting seven "capstones", namely: prudence, temperance, justice, fortitude, gratitude, patriotism, and wisdom. Liberty Common teaches its students with the most qualified teachers for the job. It is for this reason that they do not require teachers to have a teacher's license. I think this is an excellent idea because it makes teachers prove their competence in real ways rather than with arbitrary bureaucratic licenses. Liberty is a school that devotes itself to the betterment of their students and is anxious to aid parents with the task of teaching their children. Liberty can be strict but they also sponsor fun activities for students to enjoy and plan. Liberty Common is an excellent school in every way.
As a student at Liberty Common Charter School, I enjoy learning from the teachers the most. The teachers care greatly about the of the student body and do their best to not completely overwhelm us, but they do push us to do our very best. If a student, such as myself, my friends, or any of my colleagues need help understanding a concept or topic, the teachers are always ready to help. The administration allows many of our athletics to be funded, and also allow us to have our own extracurricular activities. There are very few things that I would change at my school. The first thing that comes to mind is expand our music academics. We have a concert band, choir, string orchestra, and a jazz band. We do not however have an auditorium. I would like Liberty to expand and have an auditorium so that we can have more space for the theater groups, as well as make a marching band. This is the main thing I would like to see change, or rather grow, at Liberty.
