We thank these individuals for their service to our country and for spending time with our students today! ❤️🤍💙
🐾 Wildcats — Getting Better Every Day! 🐾
The Licking Wildcats are putting in the work and focusing on the little things. It’s the small details, the extra effort, and the commitment to improvement that make the biggest difference.
Because when you take care of the little things… the big things start to happen.
Proud of the effort, attitude, and growth from this group!

Licking FFA Greenhands had an awesome time at the Greenhand Motivational Conference in January!
Members connected with State FFA Officers and other members from across the area and took part in leadership workshops and learned how to make the most of their FFA experience. GMC is designed to inspire new members to discover their potential and “suit up for success!”
We’re excited to see how these Greenhands will grow and lead our chapter in the years to come! 💚
Before diving into The River by Gary Paulsen, our Lead students kicked things off with a Gallery Walk, making predictions about our next adventure. Just finishing Hatchet, they explored images and questions to activate prior knowledge and spark curiosity about what’s next for Brian.

Saturday was our Community Breakfast where members served a nice hot breakfast to our supporters and community members.
Sunday, members attended church together at Boone Creek Baptist Church and some even attended their churches wearing official dress.
Monday, during class members celebrated FFA Week by adding their handprint to the FFA Week bander. Green represents first year students known as Greenhands, blue represents members and yellow represents the chapter officers.
Tuesday students were able to drive their tractor to school for the day.
Wednesday, high school staff was able to enjoy a nice lunch served by the FFA Officers to show our appreciation to teachers and staff.
Thursday, the elementary students got the chance to participate in FFA Week with our annual Petting Zoo. We had a wide range of animals from farm animals to exotic pets such as a snake, peacocks, and quail.

Mr. Snellings’ 7th Grade STEM class recently had the opportunity to showcase their creativity and innovation! Students presented their product designs and creations to a panel of judges including Ms. Brandi, Ms. Heather, Officer Bobby, and Coach Gorman.
Each group explained their product, shared information about its purpose, and demonstrated how their design works. Students were evaluated on their presentation and delivery, design, functionality, target market/use, teamwork, and overall preparedness.
Great job to these students for their hard work, creativity, and confidence while presenting their ideas!
