Liberty High School is pleased to announce that Junior, London Cook, won 2nd place in Raleigh County with her story "His Fight." This narrative explores the unexpected stage 4 cancer diagnosis of her 14-year-old brother, the challenges her family faces, and the tough battle her brother continues to fight.

Mrs. Acord and Ms. Whitten took four of our CTE students to the WV State Capital for CTE day! These students are completers of Social Services and Agriculture. This means they have taken the required courses to earn a certificate that states they are ready to work in the chosen program. The students presented about our CTE programs and talked to many different people about what they learn at Liberty High School. The students attended the senate session where Senator Helton and Senator Roberts introduced them on the senate floor. They were also able to sit down in both senators offices and talk about what is going on in our state and their plan for the future. These students made LHS and Raleigh County proud! #raidernation
