Liber Community School is located in Los Gatos, approximately 50 miles south of San Francisco. Our students come from all over the San Francisco Bay Area. We serve families from Palo Alto to Morgan Hill and across to the East Bay including Hayward and Fremont.

We are committed to being a diverse and inclusive community. Liber Community School does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, creed, national or ethnic origin, age, religion, gender, sexual orientation or disability, in accordance with existing state or federal law or regulations, in the administration of its admissions policies, school programs and activities, or employment practices. LCS nurtures and values an environment in which a diverse population celebrates and respects the talents, perspectives, and opinions of each individual.

Our mission is to build young men and women who are self-disciplined, courageous and thoughtful of their fellowmen; who build families and Institutions that change the world. We would love to discuss with you the unique educational opportunities for your family offered at Liber Community School.
