Thank you Mrs. Foote

Margaret Baumgartner, Sports Editor December 20, 2019

From tampons and hair ties to talking about life Kelsey Foote is there for you. Despite me never having her as a teacher she has always been there for me and is a teacher who is there for students, whether...

Bus Drivers

Madeline Parrish, Staff Writer December 20, 2019

Nobody likes getting up in the morning. The dreadful alarm, the freezing cold air, the struggle of opening even just one eye--but it all becomes worth it when greeted by your friendly neighborhood bus...

Ms. Garcia

Elizabeth Yan, Editorial Board Member December 20, 2019

Sometimes, I think about my ninth grade year and feel regret wash over me. As a freshman, I was too naive to fully appreciate Señora Garcia. I was too young to realize that one day, Spanish 2 would end,...

Running Start

Brianna Nelson, Entertainment Editor December 20, 2019

College as a high school student sounds kind of daunting but the Running Start program gives juniors and seniors a chance to get a head start at college while still being in high school.  Running Start...

Thank you, Mr. Kennedy

Raquel Rossi, Opinion Editor December 20, 2019

Honestly, math is the worst subject to have in the morning. Mostly because it normally goes like this: a bunch of numbers and symbols swim around in your half awake brain as you stare  blankly at the...

L’Cafe

Abigail Peacock, Editor In Chief December 20, 2019

The L’ Cafe is the height of high school cuisine. The smoothies: delectable. The pasta dishes: scrumptious. The baked goods: splurge-worthy. The Liberty community is unbelievably lucky to have the...

2019 was a year of growth, change, and highlights: the Sounders won the MLS Cup, Tesla released the Cybertruck, Burger King made a burger without burger, Kanye West went gospel, and a banana taped to a...

Senior Waiver

Ashtyn Sakamoto, Opinion Editor December 20, 2019

Minutes crawl by in anticipation of the best class of the day - senior waiver. As soon as the bell rings, I grab my backpack and make my way through the crowded hallways to the front parking lot. Freedom,...

Teachers who promote active learning

Elizabeth Rollison, Editor In Chief December 20, 2019

I’m a kinesthetic learner; I always have been. I absorb information best when I’m physically doing something, whether it’s doodling during a lecture, taking copious notes on a presentation, or participating...

ASB Posters

Hallie Chen, Editor In Chief December 20, 2019

I wanted to smash my head into the wall. Freshman orientation, I was stumbling through Liberty trying to find my classes. It was impossible. Every hallway looked the same, because they were all the...

Counselors

Nathan Jackson, Editor In Chief December 20, 2019

They sign you up for classes, write letters of recommendation, help you when you need it most, and get a fraction of the thanks they deserve. Know who I’m talking about? Liberty’s counselors complete...

Liberty’s Cherished Subs

Ben Royce, Senior Writer December 20, 2019

We don't talk about substitute teachers frequently, but without their seven-hour employment, Liberty would come grinding to a halt. They answer the call of duty on incredibly short notice, which lets teachers...
