Parent Engagement Corner

We deeply value our partnership with parents and families and believe that strong family engagement is essential to student success. Our Parent Engagement Coordinator helps create meaningful opportunities for families to stay informed, share feedback, build community, and partner with the school.

Families can engage with Libertas through:

  • Parent-Advisor Relationships: Regular communication and ongoing connection between families and their student’s advisor
  • Quarterly Progress Report Nights: Opportunities to review student progress and connect with teachers and staff
  • Family Surveys: Twice-yearly opportunities to share feedback and help us strengthen the family experience
  • Family Community Groups: Opportunities for families to connect with one another and build community around shared interests and experiences

Student, Parent & Advisor Partnership

At Libertas, we believe every student and family deserves a champion. Every student is paired with a dedicated advisor who supports their academic, personal, and college journey throughout their time at Libertas.

Families are an essential part of the advising partnership. Advisors communicate with parents and guardians to share updates, celebrate student progress, address challenges, and work together to support each student’s success.

Through this ongoing partnership, students, families, and advisors work as a team to help every student build the skills, habits, and confidence needed to thrive in college, career, and life.

Your voice matters. We regularly seek feedback from families to strengthen our advising program and ensure that every family feels informed, supported, and connected to their student’s experience at Libertas.

English Leaner Parent Advisory Council (ELPAC)

Family Satisfaction Corner

We survey families at critical points throughout the year to seek their perspective on our strengths and areas we can further improve.  

This is what we heard from parents in our most recent Winter 2025 Family Survey:

“[Libertas Academy] has changed both of my daughters' lives. They have amazing grades and they are actually learning.  They are thinking about college and their future, and it is all thanks to Libertas.” - Upper Academy Parent

“Es una excelente escuela ya que trabajan arduamente con los estudiantes y se enfocan mucho en que los estudiantes se sientan bien y logren sus metas académicas apoyándolos y manteniendo los estudiantes enfocados y motivados.” - Lower Academy Parent

"The school provides the resources my children need to be successful in the future and in life." - Upper Academy Parent

"I believe Libertas cares deeply about the education of each student and goes above and beyond to make sure kids are learning and meeting goals." - Lower Academy Parent

"[My daughter] loves being in school.  She comes home every day excited to discuss what she learned and what they did that day.  She has had a lot of achievements and growth since coming here.  And also, the teachers here love their job, and it shows. They make sure that students get what they are teaching, not just teaching to teach." - Lower Academy Parent

"The teachers and administrators do an extremely good job making sure the scholars succeed, progress, and are accountable." - Upper Academy Parent
