Liberty Hill ISD sets goals to boost achievement Liberty Hill ISD has adopted new goals to improve student performance in the 2025-26 school year and beyond. LHISD officials presented an updated district improvement plan, as mandated by state law, at an Oct. 20 board of trustees meeting. The plan details goals to raise student achieve- ment in math and reading as well as college, career and military readiness, or CCMR, along- side providing additional support for historically underperforming student groups, said Heather Stoner, LHISD’s new assistant superintendent of teaching and learning. The approach To accomplish these goals, LHISD will provide professional learning for teachers in math, read- ing and other core subjects alongside training for instructional coaches who will guide strategies

LHISD’s tax-rate election passes

LHISD’s performance goals

Reducing achievement gaps by 5% or more for historically underperforming groups Increasing graduates meeting CCMR criteria from 78% in 2022 to 90% by 2027 Ensuring 75% of 4th-9th grade students meet or exceed previous STAAR math and reading scores Increasing math and reading STAAR scores by at least 5%.

Voters passed Liberty Hill ISD’s Prop- osition A tax rate increase, uncanvassed election night results show. The results On Nov. 4, 52.19% of voters, or 3,986 people, cast their ballots in favor of Prop A, while 47.81% of voters, or 3,651 people, voted against the measure. The district had previously called for a tax rate election in November 2024, during which voters failed to approve a nearly $0.06 increase. Zooming out LHISD asked voters to approve a main- tenance and operations, or M&O, tax rate of $0.7389 per $100 valuation, about $0.07 higher than the fiscal year 2024-25 M&O tax rate of $0.6669 per $100 valuation.

Liberty Hill's sculpture park celebrates local artists From the cover

The history

332

Local artist Mel Fowler organized Liberty Hill’s International Sculpture Park Symposium in 1976 following trips to Europe and interactions with the larger sculpting community. The event attracted sculptors from around the world, where they created pieces for the city’s rst sculpture exhibit at Veteran’s Park downtown. In 1977, the city won a Texas Arts Award for the symposium. Today, the park is located at Lion’s Foundation Park, near Louine Noble Elementary School, and is maintained by the Liberty Hill Development Foundation. Together with the city, the foundation hosts the festival, to which Liberty Hill has contributed $25,000 annually since 2022. Some of the park’s works have attracted attention from the Smithsonian. The museum reached out about acquiring Ann Merck’s sculpture Western Vision in 1987, according to Liberty Hill historian Gary Spivey. Discussions were revived in 2021 and are still ongoing.

What they’re saying

“The community is excited. … If you’re going to create art, what a great place to do

In addition to celebrating the sculpture festival, the Liberty Hill Development Foundation maintains a museum at Lions Foundation Park that displays artifacts and historical documents related to the city’s history. The 1,500-square-foot center, located at 355 Main St., displays Liberty Hill’s 1977 Texas Arts Award as well as recordings by Fowler. “[The museum] is for Liberty Hill’s history,” Spivey said. “Of course, the Sculpture Park is one of the big [pieces] of our history.”

At this year’s festival, Sandsational Sand Sculpting presented a large dragon-themed sand sculpture. The organization has participated in the festival since 2022 and designs a new and unique piece each year, having created Texas-inspired sculptures and fall-themed scenes in past years, founder Jill Harris said. “We love this festival,” Harris said. “All the vendors are fantastic. The music’s good. ... It’s just such a great variety of art and sculpture.” Harris noted the variety of materials utilized by dierent artists at the festival,
