Summary

Liberty High School is a public high school located in Glen Daniel, West Virginia, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 459 students. The school is part of the Raleigh County Schools district, which is ranked 13 out of 55 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Over the past several years, Liberty High School has shown steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from the bottom 10% of West Virginia high schools in 2014-2015 to the top 30% in 2024-2025, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. This suggests the school has been making significant progress in its academic performance and overall quality. However, the school's performance has varied across different student subgroups, with female and white students performing relatively well, while male and special education students have struggled.

Liberty High School's test scores in mathematics, English language arts, and science have generally been below the state and district averages, with some exceptions. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's science proficiency rate was higher than the state and district averages. The school's performance in English language arts has been relatively stronger than in mathematics and science, with proficiency rates closer to or above the state and district averages in some years. While Liberty High School has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, ranging from 86% to 92.5% over the past few years, it still lags behind some of the nearby high schools, such as Shady Spring High and Woodrow Wilson High, in terms of statewide ranking and test scores.
