#1 in Colorado!  Congratulations are, once again, in order for the entire Liberty Common School staff, community, and students.  The Colorado Department of Education posted statewide ACT scores last Friday allowing us to finally compare the composite score earned by the LCHS Class of 2016 with their peers from throughout Colorado.  Our LCHS Class of 2016 is #1 in Colorado!  Their composite score of 27.078 edged out the nearest competitor Thomas MacLaren charter school which earned a score of 27.052.   CLICK HERE to see CDE's presentation of updated state ACT scores.  Upon hearing the news, one of our seniors Jared Graham said something rather impressive, "Thank you Liberty for giving us a school where we can achieve rankings like this."  He certainly has it right.  This astounding fourth-year-in-a-row #1 ranking is a function of a solid, coordinated, well-designed, classical curriculum, active and engaged parents, erudite students, and the best instructors on earth.   Clearly, Liberty's instructional contributions to this extraordinary achievement started in kindergarten.  Congratulations to the especially hard-working Class of 2016.  Henceforward, the Class of 2016 will enjoy various perks, privileges and accolades which have become somewhat customary for LCHS seniors.  Needless to say, we are all quite proud of them.  This unique milestone along their academic journeys indicates they're all on an exciting upward path.  BRAVO!

News Feature.  LCHS seniors made big news Saturday.  The Fort Collins Coloradoan, a local daily newspaper, published a nice story featuring the mighty Class of 2016 and its state-record ACT composite score.
