The week of APRIL 27th Activities and Events at Licking JH and HS

Science Club had a great adventure this past Saturday. We visited Greer Spring, then made an unexpected (but worthwhile!) stop at Twin Pines Conservation Center, and finished the day at Alley Spring. In all, we had 17 current LHS students along with 3 adult sponsors—some new faces and several returning members. Our unplanned stop at Twin Pines turned into a highlight of the day, complete with an impromptu botany lesson! 🌿 All in all, a fun, memorable trip with a great group of students.

⚠️Due to the forecasted threat of severe weather, including large hail, high winds in excess of 80 mph, and high risk of tornadoes in our area, Licking R-8 School District will dismiss at 12:45 p.m. today, April 27, 2026. Please contact your student's building office by 11:00 a.m. if you need to change transportation arrangements.
