2022 - 2023 LHS PTSO Faculty Representative - JenniferKlausmeyer@carrollk12.org
Without the continued support from parents, teachers and staff, we, the Liberty High PTSO, would not be able to support our high school in the following ways:
- We support the staff and faculty here at LHS throughout the school year by providing volunteers when needed for events throughout the school year. We also try to provide a Welcome Back breakfast, a Winter Luncheon before winter break and a lunch during Teacher Appreciation Week . We supply an nice lunch along with some surprises for them during the week. Depending on the type of Graduation, a meal for those participating in the day long activities.
- We support our students by occasionally providing a special treat and by helping with events by providing assistants whenever needed.
- We provide our Seniors the opportunity to apply for 1 of 3 PTSO SCHOLARSHIPS to help further their education beyond high school. One of the requirements is that the Senior be a current member of the PTSO and has been a member for at least one of their previous school years at LHS.
Membership deadline for Senior Scholarship Eligibility is January 31, 2023.

Home Access Center
Home Access Center is the official grade book of record. While grades can be recorded in Schoology, that does not represent the official grade for a student. Home Access Center is the official record for grades and attendance. Parents can access HAC at anytime to check grades, attendance, testing results, schedules, log-in information, and other pertinent student information.
