Explanation:

Step1: Count symbols for each school

Frisco has 5 symbols, Centennial has 5 symbols, Liberty has 3 symbols, Wakeland has 4 symbols.

Step2: Multiply by value of each symbol

Each symbol represents 300 students. Frisco: $5\times300 = 1500$ students, Centennial: $5\times300=1500$ students, Liberty: $3\times300 = 900$ students, Wakeland: $4\times300=1200$ students.

Step3: Compare enrollments

$900<1200<1500$. Liberty has the lowest enrollment.

Answer:

Liberty
