Liberty’s Site Council is a 20-member team (composed of parents, teachers, students, classified staff, counselors, and administrators) that takes on responsibilities to develop and monitor the major directions affecting Liberty High School. Decisions and discussions (whether it be on school climate, budgets for resources, curriculum, or student learning) are prefaced with the question, "Is it good for kids?" Liberty’s Site Council is more than just a representative body; it is a cohesive, close-knit group that cares about all of its members and Liberty’s community.

     Here are some of the issues and accomplishments that Site Council has experienced over the years.
