Teacher Appreciation Opportunity
DEAR LIBERTY PARENTS,
We would like to show our teachers how especially thankful we are for their commitment to teaching our children.
May 1 through May 5 is National Teacher Appreciation Week. We are putting together some fun activities for our teachers including prize drawings.
If you are so inclined and would like to donate something as one of the prizes for this event, we would be very grateful. If you have a business and would like to donate an item or gift card for services, or if you would like to purchase a gift card or other small item, you can send it with your student to be dropped off in the attendance office c/o Lindsay Kiely anytime between now and April 21st.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me at lindsaykiely@wsdr4.org Thank you for your support of LHS!

WSD Belonging and Culture Family Survey
As part of the WSD’s ongoing efforts to meet the goals within the Comprehensive School Improvement Plan (CSIP), district surveys will be administered to students in grades K-12, families, and staff. The surveys are designed to solicit feedback about the sense of belonging created within each building as well as perspectives regarding building/department culture. Each school and department within the district will use this survey data to understand the current reality and to make improvements moving forward.
Families may begin taking the survey by clicking here. The survey will remain open through Jan. 20.
The district windows for students to take the surveys are Jan. 30-Feb. 10 and May 1-19.
For more information regarding these surveys, including logistics about the administration of the surveys, a preview of the surveys, and information on how to opt out, please check out our WSD Belonging and Culture Survey page.

General Reminders
- Use your nest time wisely! Check your grades! Check your emails!
- 3 Tardies = Detention; Late = Tardy
- The bathroom is not a hangout. Consequences will be earned if this rule cannot be followed.
- You can lose Soar Time privileges. Please clean up after yourself and be respectful.
Need Help?
If you need extra help please consider these opportunities.
- Meet with the teacher before or after school. Even 10 minutes every day adds up to an extra 50 minutes of learning for you each week. Many times it is a one-to-one ratio with the teacher during these times.
- Visit your teacher during their office hours throughout Soar Time (Two 30-minute opportunities are offered weekly). Soar Time Teacher Office Hours Schedule
- Ask to see your teacher during Thursday Nest Time (pre-arrange prior to 2 pm on the Wednesday before Nest Time).
- Attend after-school Academic Assist in room 122 from 2:20 pm - 3:20 pm Monday - Thursday.
- Email your teacher to ask specific questions about assignments that you are struggling to complete.
Taking advantage of all of the above suggestions would lend you over ELEVEN hours of extra help a week!
