As we enter a new millennium we are presented with numerous opportunities to examine and reflect upon past accomplishments while designing and formulating a vision for the future. While anticipating the challenges and changes that will accompany the 21st century, Liberty Corner School provides a superior education that maximizes academic achievement and nurtures the moral and social development of all members of our school community.

Fostering the development of effective problem solvers, curious life-long learners and willing risk takers is our paramount goal. A rigorous curriculum, substantiated by current educational research, encourages flexibility and diversification. Our educators understand, recognize and address the multiple intelligences, varying learning styles and differing developmental stages of the students at Liberty Corner School. A dedicated staff challenges and supports all students by upholding high expectations as the children explore opportunities to pursue personal academic achievement.

We embrace the opportunity to nurture and foster values and morals in our students that will result in compassionate individuals who can positively impact and appropriately influence the lives of others. Modeling, celebrating and recognizing attitudes, beliefs and behaviors based upon values that have lasting implications for individuals and society are major concentrations and emphases in our school.

The dedication, perseverance, initiative and commitment of all members within the school community establish the Liberty Corner Caring Community. The foundation of a strong home/school partnership relies upon consistent communication and proactive relationships that ultimately support our high academic and moral standards. Collaboration, shared responsibility, joint decision making and mutual respect of students, parents, staff and community ensure the achievement, recognition and celebration of our school mission. As we enter the 21st century, the Liberty Corner Caring Community recognizes and accepts challenges and achievements that encourage individuals to demonstrate exceptional academic, moral and personal integrity.
