Civil War Students Re-fight Bull Run
Civil War students re-fight the Battle of Bull Run using a computerized strategy game. Each student commanded at least 2 brigades and one student was in overall command for each side. After a hard fought battle, the Confederacy emerged victorious scoring 2,354 points to the Union 1,489. The Confederates suffered 4,176 casualties while inflicting 4,777 casualties on their Union foes, turning back the Union advance on Richmond.
📚 This morning, Licking Elementary was honored to host soldiers from Fort Leonard Wood to kick off our Dr. Seuss/Read Across America celebration! Soldiers visited our PreK through 3rd grade classrooms to read a story and interact with students. Joining us today was Sergeant First Class Lynda Cooke, Staff Sergeant Richard Dial, and Staff Sergeant Allen Dement. We thank these individuals for their service to our country and for spending time with our students today! ❤️🤍💙

At their last station of the day at STEM Day, 8th grade had the opportunity to experience how 3D printing has revolutionized the medical industry with a demonstration on how knee and hip replacement parts are made using the cells of a person's own body.
At another station during STEM day, 8th graders experimented with tempered glass from the Department of Glass Science and Technology at MS&T.
As part of STEM Engineering Day at MS&T, 8th graders had the chance to program robots to make them complete an obstacle course. We even had a team make it to the advanced course!
What a fantastic day with 8th grade as they enjoyed the STEM Engineering Day last Thursday at MS&T. Students began the day with some team building playing games.
🟠This week is FCCLA Week⚫️
📣Thanks to the LHS Cheerleaders, Coach Link and Coach Taylor for a great season of bringing the cheer and encouragement to our LHS basketball teams and Wildcat fans!
