The curriculum of the school is heavily laden with references to a controversial historical figure named Joseph Smith who founded a religion that practice polygamy until the early 1900's.

I love how welcoming everyone is, at the school, it just makes it feel like we are all a big family. There are still different friend groups, but everyone is nevertheless kind and helpful to others. There isn't any racism or sexism- all of the teachers, students, and other staff treat the students justly. They only offer two sports: cross-country and Kung Fu, that's it, if you need a PE credit you have to go to an afterschool business or take one of those two.

I LOVE LIAHONA! It has taught me so much academically and spiritually and I can honestly say that I am a better person from my attendance here. It has impacted my life for the better and I am so thankful for the opportunity that I have to be a Liahona Warrior.

My 8th grade son took the Stanford Achievement Test at the end of the year for 9th grade and scored 90th percentile (for the grade above his level). That gives you...

I had 4 of my children go through this school to graduation. It was exactly what I had been looking for as a concerned parent. I wanted them to learn patriotism and a love of their country, as well as a sense of their importance in contributing to society as a whole through the Gospel and their obli...
