LIBERTY HIGH SCHOOL

LIBERTY H S is a Title I public high school that is part of the HOUSTON ISD school district, located in HOUSTON, TX with about 391 students. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 20 teachers, LIBERTY H S has a student/teacher ratio of about 19:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

**Liberty High School**, located on the Southwest Freeway in Houston, is a specialized campus within the Houston Independent School District (HISD) designed primarily to serve newcomer students.

By providing intensive English as a Second Language (ESL) instruction, the school aims to bridge the gap for students who may have had interrupted formal schooling or are transitioning into the U.S. educational system for the first time.

Beyond its academic mission, Liberty High School is known for creating a supportive, culturally inclusive community that addresses the unique social and emotional needs of its international student body. The school provides a structured pathway toward graduation and post-secondary success, helping students navigate the complexities of high school while developing the linguistic proficiency and academic skills necessary to thrive in an American educational setting.
