Licking Valley Local Schools is a rural district located approximately five miles east of Newark, Ohio. Our district consists of three school buildings. Our elementary complex is the newest of these buildings, opening in October 2007, and houses approximately 920 students in grades K through 5. Our middle school originally opened in 1957 and at that time housed our middle and high schools. The middle school currently houses approximately 540 students in grades 6 through 8. Our high school opened in September 2000, and houses approximately 600 students in grades 9 through 12. Our district covers a total of approximately 108 square miles. Our district employs a dedicated staff of approximately 240, committed to providing the very best in service to our students, parents, and community. We strive to create an environment where our students can learn utilizing the most up-to-date and proven methods available, and using the latest in technology. Proof of this lies in the recent completion of a building construction and renovation project, in conjunction with the Ohio School Facilities Commission. This project resulted in the construction of our new elementary complex, and upgrades to our middle and high school buildings. Classroom projection units, sound enhancements, and new desktop computers were acquired and installed as part of the project, allowing our students and staff to have access to the latest in educational and productivity tools.
