Welcome From Our Headmaster

A Philosophy Rooted in Tradition

"Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to the small and arrogant oligarchy of those who merely happen to be walking about." — G.K. Chesterton

Family is Fundamental

Parental Responsibility for Education

Liberty Common School honors “The Universal Truth” of education – it is the right and responsibility of parents to direct the education and upbringing of their children.  This responsibility begins when families choose the school, its educational philosophy, and its corresponding academic strategies.  Parents lead in ensuring fidelity to the school’s tradition and philosophy by staying informed, volunteering, and reinforcing aligned educational goals at home.

Classical, Proven, and Timeless

Intellectual and Moral Excellence

Liberty’s academic objectives pursue the direct acquisition of knowledge. The school’s classically oriented, liberal-arts emphasis aims to provide students deep and broad intellectual orientation toward the good, the true, the beautiful, and the perfect.  The curriculum strives to equip young scholars with the skills to become thoughtful, moral, and engaged leaders in the American Republic.  Liberty’s fidelity to these enduring principles produces consistent, remarkable results.

Virtue Education

Character for Lifelong Citizenship

Virtue education is essential in the complete development and formation of young scholars at Liberty Common School.  Liberty invests thirteen years of intentional character education in its students—reinforced through classical literature, case studies, biographies, and through a direct emphasis on the cardinal virtues. This classical tradition encourages young citizens to act with integrity, empowering them to make prudent decisions based on ethical principles and authentic wisdom.
