Original Research by School Decision on Liberty Hills Elementary
Liberty Hills Elementary is a public elementary school in Lehi, Utah, serving students from pre-kindergarten through sixth grade. It is one of the elementary schools in Alpine District, a large district that is undergoing a major reorganization set to take effect in the 2027–28 school year. Under the approved split, Lehi will become part of a new district called Central, which will also include Alpine, Highland, American Fork, Cedar Hills, and the Utah County portion of Draper. This means any family enrolling at Liberty Hills now will be attending a school in a different district two years out, with new boundaries, governance, and, potentially, property tax structures. New school board members for each new district were to be elected in 2025.
The school itself is large, with an enrollment that reflects the fast-growing community it serves. The student body is predominantly White, with a notable Hispanic population and smaller shares of students who are Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander, Asian, Black, or American Indian. Just over one in ten students qualifies for free or reduced-price lunch, a modest share that aligns with the area's overall affluence. Data on the share of students with disabilities and those classified as English learners was not available in the source materials; a parent may want to ask the school directly about its special education and language support programs.
Lehi is a city defined by rapid growth. It has transformed from agricultural roots into a major employment hub within the Silicon Slopes tech corridor, home to companies like Adobe, Texas Instruments, and Vivint. It has been cited as one of the fastest-growing cities in the country. The housing market reflects this demand: home values and rents are well above national averages, and the median household income in the area is high. The area is heavily suburban and oriented around car travel, though civic buildings like the library and museum are clustered downtown. Families looking at Liberty Hills are likely to find a neighborhood that is growing, tech-driven, and relatively expensive.
On the state’s RISE assessments, student performance at Liberty Hills is a clear strength. In math, the share of students scoring proficient or above was above half. In English language arts, the rate was just under three-fifths. Science performance was higher, with about three-fifths of students reaching proficiency. Taken together, the school’s overall proficiency index places it in the top quarter of schools within Utah County, meaning its academic results are strong compared to most of its neighbors. These numbers suggest a student body that is, on average, performing well above the county median.
As an elementary school, Liberty Hills does not have a graduation rate, and data on chronic absenteeism was not available. Because pre-kindergarten through sixth grade is an untested grade band for certain measures, some typical school-level indicators simply do not apply here.
The school is a regular public school, not a charter or magnet, and its Title I status was not reported in the available data. No information on course offerings, staffing ratios, or discipline rates was provided, so a parent looking for details on class sizes or enrichment programs would need to contact the school or visit its website directly.
For a family considering this school, the picture that emerges is one of above-average academic performance in a fast-growing, tech-economy suburb. The student body is economically homogenous relative to the county, and the school sits within a district that is about to be restructured. The housing market is expensive, and the community is built around suburban neighborhoods and freeway commuting. A family who values strong test results and a stable, growing community will find Liberty Hills appealing, but they should also be aware of the upcoming district split and how it may affect school governance and long-term planning.
