Meet Liberty High School Principal, Mr. Brandon Horlick: https://www.wfmz.com/news/area/lehighvalley/northampton-county/basd-to-appoint-new-principal-to-lead-liberty-high-school/article_ae18ae98-b56f-4f62-b058-63c93ab5f10c.html
Hello Liberty High School Community!
It is an honor to serve as the Principal of Liberty High School and to return to a school and community that have shaped much of my 15 year professional journey.
My career in education began in 2007 as a youth care worker at the Northampton County Juvenile Justice Center. That formative experience inspired me to become a teacher, and from 2010 to 2015, I taught high school social studies at the Roosevelt Campus of Norristown Area High School. In 2015, I joined the Liberty High School team as a special education teacher, co-teaching 9th and 10th grade Algebra. Those years gave me a deep appreciation for Liberty’s tradition, diversity, and strong sense of community.
In 2018, I moved into school leadership as an Assistant Principal at Nitschmann Middle School, where I had the privilege of supporting many future Hurricanes. Most recently, I served as Principal of Broughal Middle School for four years. I’m thrilled to reconnect with many of my former students here at Liberty as they continue their journey in high school and beyond!
As a building leader, my primary focus is on fostering focused learning and high-level instruction, ensuring the safety and security of all students and staff, and providing support for the whole child – academically, socially, and emotionally.
Together with our dedicated staff and the Liberty community, I am committed to building on the school’s proud legacy and helping every student thrive both in and out of the classroom.
Proud to Serve the LHS/Bethlehem Community,
Brandon Horlick
Principal, Liberty High School
¡Hola, comunidad de la Preparatoria Liberty!
Es un honor ser directora de la Preparatoria Liberty y regresar a una escuela y comunidad que han marcado gran parte de mis 15 años de trayectoria profesional.
Mi carrera en educación comenzó en 2007 como asistente social juvenil en el Centro de Justicia Juvenil del Condado de Northampton. Esa experiencia formativa me inspiró a convertirme en maestra, y de 2010 a 2015 impartí estudios sociales en el Campus Roosevelt de la Preparatoria Norristown Area. En 2015, me uní al equipo de la Preparatoria Liberty como maestra de educación especial, impartiendo clases conjuntas de álgebra de 9.º y 10.º grado. Esos años me permitieron apreciar profundamente la tradición, la diversidad y el fuerte sentido de comunidad de Liberty.
En 2018, me incorporé al liderazgo escolar como subdirectora de la Escuela Intermedia Nitschmann, donde tuve el privilegio de apoyar a muchos futuros huracanes. Recientemente, fui directora de la Escuela Intermedia Broughal durante cuatro años. Me emociona reencontrarme con muchos de mis antiguos alumnos aquí en Liberty mientras continúan su camino en la preparatoria y más allá.
Como líder de escuela, mi enfoque principal es fomentar un aprendizaje enfocado y una instrucción de alto nivel, garantizar la seguridad de todos los estudiantes y el personal, y brindar apoyo integral al niño: académica, social y emocionalmente.
Junto con nuestro dedicado personal y la comunidad de Liberty, me comprometo a seguir construyendo el orgulloso legado de la escuela y a ayudar a cada estudiante a prosperar tanto dentro como fuera del aula.
Orgulloso de servir a la comunidad de LHS/Bethlehem.
Brandon Horlick
Director, Preparatoria Liberty
