Liberty Magnet High School Reviews
Rating 3.96 out of 5 140 reviews
The school is overall great, especially in EBR parish. The campus is definitely one of the best features about the school along with the numerous amounts of opportunities it provides. An example would be their internship program for senior students who are actually getting paid for their work as well! Their graduation plan is dedicated to getting you TOPS and preparation for college!
The best part of the school was the variety of education you could choose. With options for photography, computer science, engineering, performing arts, music, and etc., almost everyone could find something they were interested in. Another great aspect of the school was the peace between students, especially upperclassmen. Conflict was hardly heard of, and if it were, it was from underclassmen. Now on the other side of Liberty's image was the teacher-student connection. There were many teachers students found unlikeable, caused by the various infuriating policies enforced by the school during the later half of my time at Liberty. The disconnect with teachers contributed to this feeling of Liberty having no soul. Compared to other schools in the district, it felt like Liberty was bland in comparison. I do believe efforts were made to instill more school spirit but it takes time to build a culture at a school which may be seen given time.
I have been at Liberty Magnet High School since my freshman year, where I've seen changes within the past two school years, from new staff members, to rule changes, and even new faces from incoming freshman or transferring students. I like how this school promotes students' independece by having an open campus; giving students an option to eat lunch either inside or outside. Additionally, students are allowed (if permitted by their teacher) to work independently or with a group outside. Though, our school could use some more diversity, teachers are welcoming and promote and productive but also creative work environment; encouraging students to want to do thir best work. Lastly, I'd like the school to host more dances (ex winter formal/ spring dance) throughout the school year.
