"Based on our child's experience at Liberty, no parent should hesitate to send their child there. As opposed to a few reviewers, here, we find the principal very accommodating, warm, and genuinely concerned about the children's well being. We've had outstanding teachers, and our child actually brags about his school to others. He loves Liberty! For anyone concerned about the strictness of the administration not letting parents into the building, think again; do you really want a school that lets just any adult roam the halls? Kudos to Liberty for restricting the flow of moms and dads!"

"I believe that this school should get a 4 out of 5. The teaching staff cares a lot about their students and the well being of the educational enviornment. As a teaching intern from Liberty, I was able to witness this first hand. As for the comment by the parent, do 6th graders really need parties? They are becoming old enough to be in school and not need a recess or a party. I feel at some point, the kids need to be in school without those things and I believe 6th grade is a good time. I taught in the 6th grade social studies department and all of the kids were learning the correct material to be prepared for the state tests. As for discipline, they take that very seriously and that is the way it should be."

"School does not follow the district ploicy's. Parents are not welcome in the building. Some staff is disorganized and principal is not friendly or understanding. 5th and 6th grades are not treated equaly.such as no party's for 6th graders, but do have for the 5th. Students are otherwise treated like kids. no talking at lunch most days and students sit boy girl at lunch for months as punishment for talking. PTO is not involved with parents and staff is not informative."

"Well, after graduation from Liberty Intermediate, I'll say it was very fun. Although being a new building, and having slight problems, I'd say they've just about got it up and running okay. I've rated it at 4 stars for it was clear that talking in the hallways was very strict, therefore, enforced discipline was at my perspective. Having some new computers offered me to jump out of using old Windows 98's and 2000's, and into the fast keen computers with Windows XP. Typing classes there got me up to speed, quite litterly in fact. Spanish is also taught for one quarter, due to a lot of needed classes. Although, they may just be for fun. But trust me, although they don't have any sidewalk YET, Liberty is a good school, I loved my years there. Sure, the ocasional problems, but so much better then surrounding schools, but isn't the cream-of-the-crop."
