Liberty Central School District

The Liberty Central School District is located in Sullivan County, New York. The school consists of a High School and a Middle School, which are part of the same complex, and an Elementary School which is a separate building less than a mile away.

General Information

The Liberty Elementary School was built in 1925 as a centralized location for education in the Liberty Area. Overcrowding was a major problem, as too many students were going there (there were at one point tents on the front lawn to accommodate classes). Overcrowding is still a problem after the district's Pre-K and Kindergarten school closed, so now the grades taught go from Pre-Kindergarten to 4th.

In 1963, the current High School was built to accommodate the influx of students, and the upper-level students were moved there from the original school, while those in lower grades remained. There are approximately 600 students attending it form 9th to 12th grade making it Class B for sports. In addition to normal courses Liberty High School offers Advanced Placement and Distance Learning classes. [ [http://www.libertyk12.org/highschool/highinfo.shtml HS Information ] ]

Due to more crowding, the Liberty Middle School was opened in 1991 to hold students from grades 5 to 8. [ [http://www.libertyk12.org/middleschool/middlemain.shtml MS Main Page ] ]
