North Liberty Elementary School · 2010s–2026
The town's own music room is its elementary school's. The corporation minutes preserve it working: in December 2017 the board recorded that North Liberty fifth- and sixth-graders, under music teacher Cathy Austin, raised $5,388.87 for the music department through a cheese-and-sausage fundraiser, and that fourth- through sixth-graders performed 'A Penguin Christmas' to a packed gymnasium on 19 December 2017, directed by Austin.
