Liberty High School
The Wentzville School Foundation is an organization committed to enriching the educational experience within the Wentzville School District (WSD) and fostering stronger connections with the community. As a rapidly expanding school district, finding innovative ways to engage with the community and communicate our plans for supporting the WSD community is crucial. To achieve this, the Wentzville School Foundation has launched an exciting contest open to all schools in the district. The foundation will grant a $2,000 building grant to the school that can encourage the highest number of families to vote for their school using our Google Form. The Wentzville School Foundation is committed to being a catalyst for positive change in the WSD, and this contest is just one way we are striving to make a difference. By actively involving families and the community in our efforts, we can strengthen the district's educational foundation and create a brighter future for all students. So, join us in this contest and be a part of a community that values education, collaboration, and growth. Together, we can shape the future of education in the Wentzville School District.
The contest is held from October 17th - October 31st --- vote now, share, help us win!

Booster Club Needs YOU
The concession stands are the Booster Club's largest fundraisers. The funds earned from concession sales are used to help support the Liberty High School athletic programs, clubs and activities. In order for this to be possible, we need volunteers to help out covering the shifts. We are in serious need of volunteers. If your student participates in any school extracurriculars, we ask that you and/or your student sign up for at least two shifts, or more if you like, per year, per activity. If everyone chips in a little, we can accomplish great things.
