Encouraging a Love of Reading
We encourage all Liberty Middle School students to get a library card using their student number at any Forsyth County Public Library! Public libraries offer even more resources for lifelong learning and enjoyment.
Talking with your children about what they are reading can significantly impact their academic performance and strengthen family connections. We invite you and your child to explore our school media center catalog together to discuss book options or create a reading list.
