Physical Education:
Through the use of cooperation, teamwork, and communication, students at Liberty Middle School study the importance of physical fitness, proficient health practices, and safety procedures.
Health:
Health classes are offered through the Physical Education Department as a nine-week unit of instruction. This required course is a diversified health curriculum which encompasses AIDS prevention/education, human growth and development, reproduction, nutrition, safety and drug awareness. Students are presented with information concerning a variety of careers in the field of health. These concepts are taught in a sequential order of difficulty from sixth grade through eighth grade.

Advanced Weight training uses a variety of specialized equipment to target specific muscle groups and types of movement.
