Welcome to Liberty Middle School!
Liberty Middle is a Healthy School
      Liberty Middle School was one of 125 schools in South Carolina to be recognized as a “Healthy School” by the United States Department of Agriculture. The award includes the banner, a plaque and a monetary prize. The award recognizes schools for serving healthy meals and having an environment where physical activity and nutrition education are high priorities in the schools. Congratulations to our cafeteria staff and our teachers for their part in receiving this award! The banner and plaque will be displayed in a prominent place in our new school.

March of Dimes Campaign Very Successful
 The Student Council would like to thank all the homerooms that participated in our campaign to raise money for the March of Dimes.  We raised $450 to help in the march against birth defects for T.J’s Trotters Team.  We would like to especially thank Mrs. Putnam’s homeroom who raised $160 and will now get to enjoy free slushies in the near future.  Thanks again to everyone!!!

A one-week residential hands-on science academy focusing on math, science, and technology for middle school students sponsored by the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) and Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) selected two students from each of the 13 Appalachian states to receive this experience. Selected students are provided with transportation and all costs of the academy.
