Summary:

Zip code 62347 has one listed school, Liberty High School, serving grades 6–12 and enrolling 253 students. Because it is the only school in the list, families cannot compare it with other local schools. The central takeaway is that Liberty is above state results in most of its reported tests, although results vary by grade and subject.

Liberty’s strongest comparisons include 9th-grade PreACT Secure ELA, where 82% met the standard versus 62% statewide, and 11th-grade ACT math, at 62% versus 40%. Across all grades, IAR ELA was 64% versus 56% statewide, and math was 42% versus 40%. The main academic exception is 6th-grade IAR ELA: 52% compared with 59% statewide. Eighth-grade ISA science was still above the state, at 58% versus 52%, but its steep recent decline makes it a notable concern. Graduation was 95% versus 90% statewide; chronic absenteeism was 11%, below the state’s 24% but above the district’s 9%.

Recent changes give a mixed picture: Liberty’s 8th-grade science result fell 21 percentage points from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, while the state rose 7 points, shrinking the school’s lead from 34 points to 6. All-grades IAR ELA edged down from 63.9% to 63.7%, and math fell from 43.4% to 41.8%, as state results improved in both subjects. Meanwhile, SchoolDigger’s statewide ranking improved from 154th of 697 schools (78th percentile) in 2023–2024 to 81st of 620 (87th percentile) in 2025–2026; the district is rated four stars by SchoolDigger. Liberty’s 2024–2025 student-teacher ratio was 11.9, and 29% of students were free/reduced lunch eligible that year—contextual figures that do not explain test results.
