The Liberty music department has been rocking it over the last couple of weeks. Clarinet players from Liberty and BUGC performed for the Village of Bourbonnais inaugural tree lighting event. They brought Holiday cheer as Bourbonnais community members enjoyed this brand new experience! We also had our winter Band, Orchestra and Choir performances. These musically talented Tigers did an amazing job performing for the first time in well over a year.


Congrats to Payton for receiving the MVP Office Referral. Payton is always going above and beyond in the classroom. She continually gives her best and looks for ways to help her peers. Keep up the great work!


Congrats to Addie Lindsay for receiving our MVP office referral. Addie took it upon herself to organize her classmates in signing a get well card for one of her peers. We love your thoughtfulness Addie!

Congratualtions to one of our very own Liberty Tigers, Alayna on winning the PTA Ride to School on the Fire Truck. Tomorrow, she will be dropped off in the morning and greeted by her class. Stay tuned for pics tomorrow.

Liberty students have been practicing their public speaking skills by presenting book talks during library time. Book talks are a great way for students to introduce their classmates to all different types of books.

Attention Liberty Parents/Guardians: On Wednesday, October 27th, Liberty staff and students will participate in ALICE Training. This training will be led by Officer Garcia, our SRO, and building administration. The training will take place in the morning from approximately 7:45-10:15. ALICE Training prepares our students and staff in the event that there is ever an armed intruder or an active threat within our building. The structure of the training focuses on learning and implementing the ALICE practices and scenario-based responses. Time is provided for the students and educators to discuss appropriate responses to potentially hazardous situations. ALICE Training is conducted in compliance with the Illinois state drill requirements.

This is coming up...a week from today!
It's a great event and would love to see a lot of families there-
