Summer Recreation Program Information

Dear Liberty-Curtin Families,

It's a wrap!! I want to take a moment to thank you for an incredible year. Our first year in our new school was truly special, filled with meaningful learning, lasting memories, and a strong sense of community. It’s clear that LC is the place to be, and that’s because of all of you.

I wish all of our students and families a safe, relaxing, and fun summer. You have certainly earned it!

To our 4th grade students and their families—congratulations! We are so proud of you and wish you the very best as you transition to Central Mountain Middle School. Please remember that you will always be a part of the LC family. We would love to hear how you are doing, so feel free to reach out or stop in anytime.

For our returning families, teacher assignments and welcome letters will be sent out in late July. We will be hard at work throughout the summer planning another exciting and successful school year.

Wendy and I will continue to work throughout the summer from 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM. If we are out of the office for vacation, we will post a message to keep you informed. 

Thank you again for a wonderful year. Enjoy your summer, and we look forward to seeing everyone again soon!

One Team, One Dream,

Mr. Umbenhouer

Thank You for Your Tab Donations!

We are excited to share that our district-wide Tab Contest has officially come to a close—and what an incredible success it was! Together, our district far surpassed our goal, collecting an amazing 1,824.6 pounds of tabs to support a wonderful cause.

Here is how each school contributed to this incredible total:
• Liberty-Curtin: 627.8 lbs.
• Mill Hall: 332.8 lbs.
• Woodward: 318 lbs.
• Robb: 316 lbs.
• Renovo: 230 lbs.

We are especially proud to announce that Liberty-Curtin collected more tabs than any other school in the district! This is a tremendous accomplishment and a true reflection of the generosity and commitment of our students, families, and staff.

We talked with students about how this effort truly represented “One Team, One Dream.” We hope they take away a powerful lesson about what can be accomplished when we work together—not only within our school, but alongside other schools and our entire community.

Thank you to our students for their enthusiasm, our families for your continued support, and our staff for helping make this initiative such a success. We are so proud of what we accomplished together!

LC is the place to be!
