Liberty High School Home

Liberty High School student artists had an outstanding showing this past weekend at Via Arte, the annual outdoor chalk art festival held at The Marketplace. The event brings together school teams and independent artists, giving participants an opportunity to showcase their creativity, learn from one another, and transform pavement into works of art.
The Liberty team earned the Best Technique Award, an exciting accomplishment that marks a return to this recognition for Liberty, which last won the same award 10 years ago! The honor celebrates the students’ artistic skill, attention to detail, and teamwork as they brought a complex underwater painting to life using chalk pastels.

Liberty students recently put their mathematical skills to the test in the California Mathematics League (CAML) competition, a challenging math contest that encourages students to apply their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills to six challenging questions. This year, 105 Patriots participated. While participation was a little lower than in previous years (perhaps the rainy weather dampened our enthusiasm!), our students still delivered some impressive results!

On October 15, Liberty High School hosted its first Patriot PLUS Forum of the school year. PLUS, which stands for Peer Leaders Uniting Students, is a student leadership program focused on building connections, promoting inclusion, and empowering student voice.

Liberty Theatre students delivered an outstanding performance at the annual Peg Pauly Shakespeare Festival, held at Bakersfield College, earning recognition for both their ensemble performance and individual accomplishments.
On the first day of competition, Liberty’s ensemble team performed Puck’s Midsummer, directed by Justine, and received an Excellent rating in the ARDEN division, the festival’s highest competitive division. Liberty competes at this level based on the team’s high scores from previous years, a testament to the strength and consistency of our theatre program. Jacob Bowers, Abigail Graff, and Camryn Yasenchak also earned individual Standout Medals for their performances.

Liberty’s Homecoming Court represents much more than a moment in the spotlight. It celebrates four years of involvement, leadership, service, and commitment to the Liberty community. Each year, seniors who wish to be considered for Mr. and Miss Liberty complete an application documenting their participation in campus activities, athletics, clubs, and organizations. Advisors verify their involvement, ensuring the process recognizes students who have made meaningful contributions across campus.

This year’s Homecoming theme brought video games to life as our freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior classes competed in two events: the T-shirt design competition and the highly anticipated float competition. The freshmen took home the win for T-shirt design, while the seniors claimed the float competition title. Float judging included several categories: set design and construction, storyline, theme, and overall presentation. While the friendly competition added excitement, the heart of Homecoming was the community that came together to make it all happen.

Every week we shine a light on a Patriot whose actions reflect the best of who we are. This is our chance to celebrate the students, staff, and community members who choose courage, kindness, and character, and who live out The Patriot Way.
This week we are honored to recognize Jason Armistead

Liberty Patriots once again demonstrated the power of service, compassion, and community by volunteering at the annual SALT Walk two weekends ago. Members of our freshman and sophomore and junior varsity Spirit Teams, Just Serve Club, and wrestling team showed up ready to encourage participants, lend a helping hand, and do whatever was needed to make the event a success.
