Liberty School (Blue Hill, Maine)
Liberty School was a private secondary school in Blue Hill, Maine, United States, that operated for nearly ten years. The school had an open campus, and students were largely in control of their education. Many students were actively involved in the school’s democratic governance. In May 2007 the school community elected a new board of trustees to increase student enrollment and improve the school finances, but it was unsuccessful. (Ellsworth American Nov. 2007 - 'Liberty School to Close in December 2007'). Liberty school closed  in December 2007
