A Message from Mr. Motal
I am thankful for the trust from the board of trustees to lead Liberty Hill through this time of transition. Liberty Hill ISD has the best students, teachers, and parents to work with. Collectively, I am confident we will all continue to work together to keep Liberty Hill ISD students as champions in academics, character, and community.
Over the past 6 years in Liberty Hill ISD, where I have served as principal, director, chief, and now superintendent, it has been the greatest pleasure to see our students excel. I have seen firsthand how our staff work with parents to ensure students grow year after year, fulfilling our mission to build students into future-ready graduates empowered to be the best versions of themselves.
This past May, watching students that I worked with day to day as principal walk across the stage, headed towards their future, was an inspiring and powerful moment. I look forward to continuing this journey with everyone as we work in collaboration to provide the best for our students, staff, parents, and community.
