Camp T Chaperone Meeting Nov. 14th @6:00pm.
Any parent that has submitted chaperone forms or is considering being a chaperone for Camp T should attend a meeting on Thursday November 14th at 6:00pm. There have been some changes to the background check procedures and we need to communicate the process with anyone that is considering chaperoning. Anyone who has previously submitted background check paperwork; that paperwork is no longer valid for Camp T. The meeting should last no longer than 30 minutes. Any parent/guardian that attends the meeting will need to sign in so that we can assure we are communicating throughout the process.
Here at Liberty we are so proud of what our fantastic nurse and social worker have provided. Please read in regard to the Tiger Care Closet!

The students in Mrs. Riegel’s 6th grade science class are making a model of a plant cell. They are turning their plant cell into a city. They have to show how all the organelles would be represented in a city by how the plant cell/the city runs. The students are being super creative! Can’t wait to see the finished projects!
