We had our child in this school for a while. Overall, we were very unsatisfied. His primary teacher wasn't very engaged. The principle backed the disengaged teacher. The teacher stopped answering email/correspondence because of 'health reasons'. Our child actually went backwards for a few months in this school instead of forwards academically. Take your child somewhere else....this school isn't very good.

Don't waste your time. If your student doesn't fit neatly in the rigid box they create, he/she won't do well here. There's lots of potential here...but not follow-through from the teachers. Way too much gossip behind the scenes with the staff and principal. Don't let your student go here....it's not worth the hassle!

Probably one of the best schools in Liberal. Still one of the worst in the state. There are some good people here. But...anything creative or 'outside the box' has no place here. Our child doesn't fit into rigidity....that's all that was offered here. Very sad - this could be a great school....
