GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Liberty is a new school being less than 10 years old it is still growing and changing a lot. Liberty is a great school with lots of great teachers. One thing I have not enjoyed about my experience at liberty is the diversity. Liberty is located in a more wealthy area and I think that affects the demographics of the school. One thing I have enjoyed while at my time at Liberty is the staff and the opportunities I have been given. Everyone is very supportive and helpful making the high school experience a lot smoother. One thing I would like to see at Liberty High school is diversity and welcomeness of students. The teachers are great but liberty isn't always viewed as a welcoming school because of students and that makes it difficult for new people.

The school itself is BEAUTIFUL. I moved from a highschool in illinois and did not look forward to going to school as it almost felt like a prison because it looked like one. Liberty does not. The amount of natural light helps my mental health and doesn't make school feel like prison. The teachers truly care and put everything into there work. The administration is amazing and the pure amount of opportunities we have is amazing. I can say i've had one of the best highschool experiences at Liberty.

I didn't have great experience with my classmates. The school is in the nice suburbs of Iowa City so most of the kids are pretty spoiled and bratty. I thought the building itself was pretty nice and I got along with most of the staff but my time as a student was brutal and I started going to therapy because of it.
