This morning kicked off the first day of band camp with our new band director, Mr. Zane Redden! While the Liberty Eagles Band may be small right now, Mr. Redden has big plans and high hopes for growing the program.
Band camp will continue through Friday, and we’re excited to see the progress our students make under Mr. Redden’s direction.
Ms. Beavers, our new choir director, is assisting Mr. Redden this week!
Let’s make some noise this year—Go Liberty Eagles Band!



We were honored to welcome Stephen Hall, Chief Communications Officer for Springfield Public Schools, as our guest presenter at the 3rd Annual Board/Admin Retreat!
Stephen shared valuable tips and strategies to help our district strengthen both internal and external communications for the 2025-2026 school year. His insights were practical, inspiring, and tailored to support the continued growth of our schools and community.
As a proud 1997 graduate of Liberty High School, Stephen also took a moment to reflect on his time as a student in our district, sharing fond memories that reminded us all of the lasting impact our schools have on students’ lives.
Thank you, Stephen, for giving back to your roots and helping us move forward!

We’re proud to share that four of our Liberty High School juniors—Jihan Hester, Thomas Mansfield, Payton Glasscock, and Mathew Moore—recently attended the three-day Traction Leadership Conference sponsored by MODOT in Cape Girardeau!
They joined over 100 high school students from across Missouri, all united by a powerful mission: to help prevent teen deaths on Missouri highways.
Throughout the conference, our students participated in impactful workshops focused on leadership, highway safety, and advocacy. In the evenings, they enjoyed good, clean team-building fun, including the Traction Olympics—a high-energy event designed to build trust, teamwork, and school spirit.
We’re excited to announce that our students took home FIRST PLACE in the Traction Olympics! Their teamwork, enthusiasm, and leadership truly stood out.
We’re incredibly proud of these students for representing our district with purpose and passion.
