Best Public Schools in Liberty, IN

Summary:

The city of Liberty, Indiana, is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Union County High School, Liberty Elementary School, and Union County Middle School. These schools, part of the Union County/Clg Corner Joint School District, serve a predominantly white student population, with minority representation being low across all three campuses.

Among the standout schools, Liberty Elementary School shines, ranking 256 out of 1,010 Indiana elementary schools and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state averages in ILEARN English Language Arts and Math proficiency across grades 3-5, and has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 16.7%. Meanwhile, Union County High School maintains a strong 90.3% four-year graduation rate and ranks 164 out of 398 Indiana high schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

However, not all schools in Liberty, Indiana, are performing at the same level. Union County Middle School struggles with ILEARN proficiency, scoring below the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Math. Additionally, all three schools face significant socioeconomic challenges, with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.01% to 54.62%. These disparities in academic performance and socioeconomic factors suggest the need for targeted interventions and support to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Liberty community.
