Welcome to the Liberty-Curtin Elementary School Grades K – 4 website!

We are a part of the Keystone Central School District with our school located just over the Clinton County line in Centre County. Our current enrollment is approximately 165 students with two classrooms for each grade level. We have a wonderful staff of teacher who provides high quality engaging instruction in all four core subjects: English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies.

Dear Liberty-Curtin Parents/Guardians:

We want to hear about your experience with your student’s education. We invite you to participate in completing the School Climate Survey. This survey includes questions about your student’s learning, school safety, and interpersonal relationships, as well as your attitudes about the institutional environment and your personal involvement in school. Your responses will be very helpful in improving student relationships, learning conditions, and the overall school environment.

Beginning 10/16/24, we invite all Parents, Guardians and Caretakers to complete this survey for our school. The survey is completely anonymous and brief; it contains 21 questions and takes about 10-15 minutes to complete.

You can take the survey online by using the following unique school link:

https://www.pbisassessment.org/Anon/6vO200wD4W0

(If you cannot access this online survey, please pick up a paper copy in your school office, complete it, and return to the school.) Please submit your responses by 10/31/24.

All your responses are completely anonymous. We have no way to connect you to your answers, and results will only be reported as group responses. There are no right or wrong answers. We just want to know about your personal experiences. Responses are housed securely in an anonymous format with the University of Oregon Technical Assistance Center projects for evaluation research purposes. All evaluation research projects are in compliance with the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act, (343 CFR 99.31 (6)) and human subjects regulations (Protection of Human Subjects 45 CFR 46).

As you respond to each item, think about your own personal experiences as a parent, caregiver or guardian at your student’s school. Please answer all of the questions, or your answers won’t be recorded, but you can mark “I prefer not to answer” if you don’t want to answer a question about you.

We hope you will take the time to provide us with this valuable information. Feel free to call Christina Manning at 570-893-4900 ext: 2105 if you have any questions. Each school’s total survey results will be used to inform and develop appropriate strategies, procedures, and/or programs to enhance our school climate.

Again, the link to complete the survey is https://www.pbisassessment.org/Anon/6vO200wD4W0

Thank you for your time and participation!
