Liberty opened in 1994 to alleviate crowding at Fauquier High School, the sole high school in Fauquier County at the time. The school was also built to accommodate the sprawling southern part of the county, close to the Fredericksburg area; this is one of the fastest growing areas in Virginia. A new high school is expected to open in Fauquier County in 2009 or 2010.
