Hi femenist,
I'm not sure you'll find a school that labels itself 'liberal' anymore than you're likely to label a school 'conservative' in the elementary years. Schools generally try to stay neutral in regards to politics during the formative years. While certain areas may have more families that lean one way or the other politically, the schools themselves aren't teaching one philosophy over the other.
But you might look for a school that places emphasis on values you appreciate like 'social justice' or 'environmental science' or whatever you define as important. Look for charters and even private schools, too.
To get started, type your zip code or city into http://www.greatschools.org/find-schools/
and you'll find schools in your area. You can then compare ratings, read parent reviews, and find the schools that interest you. You can then call to tour.
Good luck.79394
