Teachers of the Year

The Liberty Elementary School District is home to so many passionate and wonderful educators. That presents a wonderful challenge when it comes time for each of LESD's seven schools to select a 'Teacher of the Year.'

Summer Institute

Liberty Elementary School District hosts a Summer Institute for K-3 children who need additional support in the areas of reading and/or language acquisition.

The Summer Institute will take place from 8:00 a.m. to noon on Monday through Thursday, from June 6 - June 30. Transportation is available to all participants and meals will be provided for breakfast and lunch.

The Summer Institute will continue to build upon skills acquired during the academic school year by utilizing small group instruction, high interest topic study, systematic phonics instruction and language acquisition strategies. The goal is to positively impact students' writing, reading and vocabulary development.

Families with students who qualify received letters from the school district with instructions on how to enroll if interested. If you have questions, please contact Erin Brandon, Summer Institute Coordinator, at ebrandon@liberty25.org.

An Ag-citing Future

As the flagship school of LESD, Liberty Elementary School continues to build on its roots, while growing for the future. Liberty's recent 'Agrival' celebrated the school's signature program of Agriscience and its importance in our everyday lives.

Become a Teacher!

Having a four-year degree in education isn't the only pathway to become a teacher. Rio Salado’s Teacher-In-Residence (TIR) intern program provides a convenient, cost-effective way for students and working professionals with a bachelor’s degree to transition into a K-12 teaching career.

Through paid employment opportunities in the classroom, post-secondary students can earn an income while completing the certification coursework. The program can be completed in two years and is available to Arizona residents only.

A virtual orientation is coming up if you want to learn more:

May 19 from 6:00-8:00 p.m.
