Summary

Liberty Hill High School is a large, 4-star public high school in Liberty Hill, TX, serving 2,156 students in grades 9-12 as part of the high-performing Liberty Hill Independent School District (Isd). The school boasts strong academic performance, particularly in Biology and U.S. History, where it outperforms many nearby peers like Leander High School and Glenn High School, with 81.25% and 74.7% proficiency rates respectively. However, Algebra I is a notable weakness, with only 63% proficiency—significantly below the district average and a stark contrast to Florence High School, a smaller school just 14 miles away that outperformed Liberty Hill in this subject (74.4% vs. 63%).

The school shows a "tale of two schools" in how it serves different student groups. It excels with Special Education and Female students, ranking in the 76th and 79th percentiles respectively, but struggles significantly with Low Socio-Economic Status and English Language Learner students, who rank in the 28th and 6th percentiles. This achievement gap is wider than at nearby schools like Rouse High School, which has a different demographic profile. Despite these challenges, Liberty Hill maintains a high graduation rate (consistently above 95%) and a very low dropout rate, though a dip during the 2020-2021 school year (to 91.7%) was more pronounced than at stable peers like Cedar Park High School or Vista Ridge High School.

Interestingly, Liberty Hill's overall state ranking has gradually declined from a peak of 289th in 2015-2016 to 514th recently, while Rouse High School has climbed and Cedar Park High School has remained stable. Nearby, Ki Charter Academy Liberty Hill (a low-performing charter with a high dropout rate) and Leander Extended Opportunity (an alternative school with high per-student spending) provide context for Liberty Hill's strong traditional public school performance. Overall, Liberty Hill offers a robust education with standout science and history programs, but families should be aware of the Algebra I challenges and the uneven support for certain student groups.
