Emblems
The Liberty Common School seal is a central logo encapsulating the institution’s values and mission. At the center of the seal, you’ll find a rendition of a European fresco of The Wedding of Cana. In this depiction, a Roman woman is shown filling empty vessels, representing the school’s dedication to pouring knowledge into the minds of its students. The three jars in the foreground represent our three stages of schooling – elementary, middle school, and high school. The jars in the background symbolize our alumni.
The woman is depicted wearing an archetypal Greek or Roman headband and robe, and her foot is slightly exposed as an homage to the iconic Statue of Liberty. The seal includes stars and a soaring eagle, which symbolize America and its values, serving to showcase the school’s commitment to instilling patriotism and civic duty in its students.
The three pillars in the seal represent the school’s motto: Common Knowledge, Common Virtues, and Common Sense. These core principles are essential to Liberty Common School’s educational philosophy. The torches included in the seal represent knowledge and leadership, further emphasizing the institution’s commitment to providing its students with the tools they need to succeed. These images are set on a breathtaking sunrise, symbolizing the potential of Liberty Common School’s students.
Alma Mater
The lyrics of Liberty Common School’s Alma Mater were composed in honor of the first Liberty Common High School graduating class, the Class of 2013, by LCHS’s first principal Bob Schaffer who later became Liberty’s Headmaster. The anthem’s phrases and poetic imagery include the school’s Capstone Virtues, its Keystone Virtue, school colors, a reference to the school mascot, and statements of school unity from the LCS mission statement, original Charter, and founding documents.
