Through the study of American history, civics, and influential historical figures, students develop historical knowledge, critical thinking skills, and an appreciation for responsible citizenship.
Science
Science instruction inspires curiosity and wonder while providing students with a strong foundation in life science, earth science, physical science, and scientific inquiry. Through observation, exploration, and hands-on learning experiences, students develop an understanding of the natural world and the scientific principles that govern it.
Math
Liberty Academy's mathematics program emphasizes mastery, logical reasoning, and problem-solving. Using a structured, teacher-led approach, students develop strong computational skills and conceptual understanding while building confidence in mathematics. Students are challenged to think analytically and apply mathematical concepts to real-world situations.
Literature Arts
Literature is at the heart of a classical education. Students read age-appropriate classic books, poetry, historical narratives, and great works of children's literature that build vocabulary, comprehension, and cultural literacy. Through thoughtful discussion and analysis, students develop a lifelong love of reading while exploring enduring themes of virtue, courage, and human achievement.
Art
Fine arts education enriches the academic experience by introducing students to great works of art, music, and cultural traditions. Students develop creativity, observation skills, and an appreciation for beauty through artistic exploration, music appreciation, and exposure to the masterpieces that have shaped civilization throughout history.
Physical Education
Physical education supports the development of healthy habits, physical fitness, teamwork, and personal responsibility. Students participate in age-appropriate activities that promote coordination, strength, sportsmanship, and overall well-being while encouraging an active and healthy lifestyle.
Character/Leadership Development
Character education is integrated throughout every aspect of the Liberty Academy experience. Students are encouraged to develop virtues such as honesty, perseverance, responsibility, respect, courage, and self-discipline while learning the principles of servant leadership, citizenship, and personal integrity. Our goal is to cultivate knowledgeable, virtuous young people prepared to contribute positively to their families, communities, and country.
