As we move into the second semester, our theme of Keep Going, Keep Growing feels especially meaningful. While this list highlights notable successes, it does not capture every moment of growth, achievement, and perseverance that occurred throughout the semester. There are countless ways our students continue to rise, support one another, and represent Liberty each day and with a focus on each day being a bit better than the day even, the possibilities are endless. Don't underestimate the power of a growth mindset and expectation of success.
