April 17 is the deadline to sign up for Liberty Charter School's lottery to establish its waiting list for the 2009-2010 school year. Liberty's lottery will occur April 23 at 3 p.m. at the school. Those interested in signing up for the lottery can find the forms online at www.libertycharterschool.com, or they can sign up at the school between 8:30 a.m. and 3 p.m., Monday through Friday, until the April 17 deadline. The school is located at 1063 E. Lewis Lane in Nampa. Liberty Charter is a public school, so no tuition is charged. Liberty pioneered the Harbor School Method and offers grades K-12. Its focus is on the humanities, and provides several opportunities for extra-curricular activities and sports. (If parents want to remove their children's names from the waiting list, they can do so by calling the school at 466-7952, or by emailing a request to office@libertycharterschool.com.)

Please note that Liberty Charter School will be closed for spring break from March 19 to April 6.
