Information/Updates about Pickerington High School Central
Message from Mr. Lanier
A very Happy New Year to each and everyone in Tiger Nation. We are moving on to 2024!! The new year brings excitement and anticipation of what is to come. It also brings with it stress based upon our worries and uncertainties. We all carry our glass of water based upon our life experiences. Take a minute to watch this quick video about the importance of putting the glass of water down to free yourself from your worries and relieve your stress. It is advice that I plan to follow for sure!!
Can't wait to see everyone back on January 3 to start the second semester.
Let's Go Tigers,
Mr. Lanier
