Another group of students were caught being kind and doing something to help their school or their fellow classmates. We want to recognize these outstanding students and say THANK YOU!
Our Random Acts of Kindness Week is coming to an end today. We hope the Raider Nation community has taken on a challenge this week and spread joy to someone else. The last three days of challenges are:
Wednesday - Talk to someone you don't normally talk to. Ask them about their day.
Thursday - Offer to help someone
Friday - Brighten someone's day with a smile or kind word
Thank you to everyone who participated in this week and thank you to the students who used the weekly lessons in LINKS to make our school a better place!
For Friday, February 17, Raleigh County Schools will be closed

It is Tuesday on our Random Acts of Kindness Week! We challenged the students to learn about Caring in LINKS and to compliment 5 people today. We would like to challenge Raider Nation to do the same and give a compliment to someone!
Today began our Random Acts of Kindness Week! We challenged the students to learn about Respect in LINKS and to write a thank you note to a teacher who has shown them kindness. We would like to challenge Raider Nation to do the same and write/say thank you to someone who has shown you kindness.
Liberty High School would like to thank RCFSC, Raleigh County Family Support Center, for donating $1,200 to help purchase books for our library! Our students will love seeing our library grow and inspire a new passion for reading.
