Dual Language Program Application for PreK and Kinder ONLY
The LHISD Dual Language Program application is now open. The application will be available from March 25-June 3, 2022. This is for families whose child(ren) do not qualify as an emergent bilingual (EB) but would like for their child to participate in the program. We held an informational meeting on March 23rd in English and March 24th in Spanish after our PK/KG Preview Night. Both DL Program meetings were recorded and will be posted on our Dual Language Program website. Although we are only recruiting PK/KG students, we are asking all campuses to please help us inform our community about this opportunity.
Hygiene Presentation PK-5th Grades this Spring
On April 14 during Specials/PE classes, students will receive instruction on grade-level appropriate health and hygiene. Instruction will be provided by our campus nurse, Nurse Carpenter, and Coach Scott.

Liberty Hill Public Library Activity Calendars
Have you visiting the Liberty Hill Public Library recently?? There is always something happening with something to appeal to everyone!
Please see the links below for the March, April and May calendars, as well as a copy of the Summer Reading Program calendar.
They are also hosting a special event on Saturday, April 16. They are launching the 1000 Books Before Kindergarten program. This special program is designed to promote early literacy and a lifelong love of reading. This program has been established in loving memory of Kimberly and Payton Schrock.
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
The Liberty Hill Public Library is getting ready to launch an exciting new program for the little ones in our library district, which follows the same boundaries as Liberty Hill ISD. While your campus may not yet serve these children, the potential for future educational benefit is there.
1,000 Books Before Kindergarten is a program designed to promote Early Childhood Literacy. Some very generous donors have come forward to cover the initial cost and establish this in loving memory of Kimberly and Payton Schrock.
The library will host the big kick-off event on Saturday, April 16, 1:30-3:30 p.m. I have attached a flyer that tells more about the program and event. We would really appreciate it if you could share this information with your school population to help us get the word out to the LHISD community.
