In Game Two, Kamri Thompson and Molly Lindner had two hits each against Seminole. In the nightcap of a lengthy triple-header, Kendall Wenzel had two singles, stole three bases, scored tw ...

The Mason tennis team is off and running this spring as they have completed several dual matches as well as playing in two JV tournaments and hosting two varsity tournaments. Although several of the boys and girls that will be playing tennis later are still MIA due to basketball season, we have had lots of good tennis played. The top goal for our team this year is to recapture the state team tennis championship that escaped us last year when Brock dethroned Mason after twelve consecutive 3A tit ...

If you’re expecting a whopper of a “Stop the Presses, Stop the Presses” story on realignment, you can keep the presses rolling. We’ll tell you all about where Llano has landed, but it won’t top, “The Eagle has Landed,” I’ll assure you. Here’s the hand dealt by the UIL in football on the first day of February: the Jackets are in Region IV, district 13-4A, Division II, just like last year.
Llano ISD identifies and serves students in a Gifted and Talented Program. The goal of this program is to develop within each student the desire for excellence and a sense of individual responsibility to the school, the community, and to a changing society. To be considered for selection to participate in the gifted and talented program, a student who is currently enrolled in grades K-11 may be nominated by a teacher, the parent/guardian, or the student (grades 6-11).
Plans for the 2016 Project Graduation are well on the way to making this year’s event special for the Llano High School Seniors, including the upcoming Valentine’s Gala, Silent Auction and Variety Show on February 13th. However, the Class of 2016 has chosen to celebrate at Project Graduation differently this year—by staying right here at home and spending this last night together in the very place they grew up together. LHS Project Graduation coordinator Nita Fields as well as the other p ...
You may have read on page one that there was not much change in Llano’s football district on Realignment Day, February 1. Same story for the rest of Jacket athletics. (The districts are different because football has more of a limitation on enrollment than the other sports do.) Burnet, Liberty Hill, Lampasas, Salado, and Taylor all return as league-mates with Llano in 19-4A.
