All About Band
The Liberty Band Program exists within a family atmosphere, where students always have a home during their free time at school in the band room, where students consistently seek out each other to offer academic help, and where students support each other in their musical endeavors.
The Liberty Band Program has a very supportive and active Band Booster organization. Without the help of many parents, friends, alumni, and family members, the band program would not have the opportunity to achieve the success that it has enjoyed in recent years. The Liberty Band Program is provided with the opportunity to thrive due to the support of a fantastic Administration Team at Liberty High School, within Academy School District 20.
