We are pleased to announce that Debbie Trail is rejoining LCS as our Art Teacher.  

       For those that did not work with Debbie previously, Mrs. Trail is returning to LCS to teach art again after a seven year stretch in semi-retirement. For the past 8 years she has worked as an Art Consultant at NW Hospital creating Art with and for patients. With the onset of COVID that was no longer possible and she began praying for an opportunity to use art again to encourage others.  Mrs. Trial had the privilege of teaching art at LCS for 22 years and experienced great joy integrating the gospel into her instruction. She loves to see what students are capable of creating and watching their creations unfold in the classroom. 

       Her Art career began after receiving a B.S. in Elementary Education from Towson and working as a Child Life Specialist with children at Kernan Hospital where she left as Director upon starting her family.

       She began teaching art at LCS in 1992 and received and maintained her ASCI Certification which challenged her with biblical, as well as educational, courses of study.

 Debbie and her husband are members, of Cornerstone Church and are active in various ministries there. Their son teaches Math at Winters Mill High School and he and his wife have four children. Their daughter is the Director of Underwriting at Kelly & Assoc. Insurance Group. They both attended LCS many years ago.

       Mrs. Trail and her husband enjoy bird watching, photography, summer trips to the Outer Banks, and special times with the grandchildren.

       She has had the privilege to see many former students pursue art in high school, college and as a career but what blesses her most, as their teacher, is to know that students have kept Christ first in their hearts and are growing in their faith.

Please join me in welcoming Mrs. Trail back to LCS!

The men and women at Liberty Christian School who are called to the ministry of education, need our support. With little to no notice, they were catapulted from classroom educators, to virtual reality stars. The dual roles of teaching in the hybrid environment are nothing short of exceptional. 

As believers, we should support, uplift, pray for and encourage one another. Speaking into the lives of God’s children, is an awesome responsibility. We must keep in mind that teachers have families and lives of their own. More often than not, they’re teaching our children, as their own children are learning at home. 

Here are a few ways to offer encouragement to your teacher: 

Send a dojo message or email to brighten their day!! ((Or go the extra step and send in a hand written card!))

Keep the lines of communication open to ensure a collaborative approach to your child’s education. 

Promptly pick up and drop off materials. 

Lastly, extend the grace and love of Christ, that you expect in return.
