At Liberty Learning, we believe education transforms lives. That’s why we invite you to review the information below and start the admissions process with us today. Don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions.
MEMBERSHIP FEES AND COSTS
At Liberty, your child will discover his or her God-given potential, make lifelong friends, learn to serve, and graduate ready to make a difference in their community and around the world. While this will require the investment of your financial resources, we believe you will see that this is a worthy investment in your child.
We are completely member funded and closed to the public. Our goal is to serve families and keep costs as minimal as possible.
The Annual Enrollment and Monthly Membership fees covers the general cost for faculty, facilities management, curriculum, and supplies. There are other costs associated with a private education that are not covered by tuition including field trips, member events, and the TK-8th grade cooking program.

CURRICULUM
Here at Liberty Learning we pride ourselves in utilizing the Abeka Curriculum, used for over 50 years in faith-based programs. Our ministry uses the Abeka curriculum because it uses spiraling methods, learning preferences, and cross-subject integration which provides just the right approach to learning. Here are some facts about each:
Abeka’s spiral approach—building from the simple to the complex, with frequent review and application within each grade cohort.
Since repetition is the key to learning, concepts are truly learned—and remembered.
Because concepts aren’t presented just one time, or in one way, it means our curriculum is giving your child multiple opportunities to be successful.
Rough days are less stressful for children because they don’t have just ONE CHANCE to make sure they understand a concept.
This means our instructors prevent learning gaps from the first day material is taught with Abeka until the last.
Learning preferences—when faced with the 3 major learning styles (auditory, visual, and kinesthetic, or hearing, seeing, and doing), learning preferences are how you prefer, if given a choice, to learn something. Instead of favoring 1 and neglecting the others, Abeka incorporates all 3.
By using all 3, we are teaching your children to be adaptable, resilient learners.
We’re preparing them for college and real life.
We’re doing what the best instructors do to help their children learn.
Cross-subject integration—pulling in concepts from 1 subject into several others to reinforce understanding and tie learning together.
Learning comes to life more with cross-subject integration (like when children learn about Abraham Lincoln in history, read about him in language arts, do a project with pennies and top hats in art, and write a story using what they know).
Children feel a sense of familiarity and accomplishment when they see something they’ve already learned (like spelling words) “pop up” in another subject (like science or literature). They’re set up to succeed.
It engages curiosity and emphasizes the big picture.
LEARNING MODEL
Liberty Learning is excited to offer mixed-age cohort settings for TK-12th grade.
Research strongly supports the idea that mixed-age cohorts are better for children. Not only do children out-perform peers of the same age academically, studies also show that they thrive socially. In mixed-age cohort settings, children are more likely to cooperate than compete. This spirit of cooperation and caring makes it possible for children to see each other as individuals as opposed to competitors.
In mixed-age cohort settings, instructors tailor the curriculum pacing for each learner, rather than setting the instruction pace for a whole group. This is a striking difference from traditional settings in which, for example, every child might turn to page 33 of the book and, staying there until every child understands the concept. Our model allows children who are ready for the next challenge to advance without becoming bored; it also provides children needing extra time the opportunity to learn at their own pace without feeling rushed or pressured to move on prematurely.
Mixed-age cohort settings generate a family of learners who support and care for one another. Older children have the opportunity to serve as mentors and take leadership roles. They model more sophisticated approaches to problem solving, helping younger children to accomplish tasks they would not be able to do independently. This dynamic increases the older child’s level of independence and competence while increasing the younger child’s spirit of belonging in a community of learners.
