Big thanks to Fusion Bank for showing our 1st graders the behind-the-scenes world of banking today! 🏦 From vaults to coin sorters and state quarters to storytime, it was a morning packed with learning (and some really cool coins)! #larnedpride #lesfamily #bettertogether

Spanish 2 & 3 students brought history to life for LES kindergarteners yesterday! They hosted a Living History Museum, sharing presentations about notable individuals with Spanish heritage. A great day of learning and connection for both our bigs and littles! #larnedpride #lesfamily​

LHS Track is headed to Hillsboro this Friday, May 2! Heads up if you’re planning to attend — the road south of Hillsboro is still closed. For any visitors coming from the south, the best route is Highway 15 north of Newton, then east on Highway 56 into Hillsboro. (There’s also a dirt road detour about a mile east of the Highway 50/Indigo Road intersection if you'd rather go that way.) If you're coming from Larned, the fastest route is still straight through Great Bend → Lyons → McPherson. Safe travels! 🚗 #larnedpride

National Student Leadership Week was packed with good stuff at LHS! Every student got a treat from the Woot Woot Wagon, teachers nominated Student Leaders of the Day, they had a 'Pic a Mentor' day (and took lots of great pics with someone they look up to!), and even made flowers to share with the nursing home. 🧡 #larnedpride #besttribeever #bettertogether

Larned High School SkillsUSA students showed serious skill at the State Technical Skills Competition in Hutchinson! 🔥 These events take a huge amount of talent, training and precision. Our students went toe-to-toe with some of the largest 6A schools and tech academies in the state — and they more than held their own. 🏆 Trenton Devine – 1st in Masonry 🏆 Mason Miller – 1st in Commercial Roofing 🥈 Mylo Nelson – 2nd in Commercial Roofing 🥈 Slade Sundahl – 2nd in Electrical Construction 🥉 C.J. Violango – 3rd in Electrical Construction 🥉 Eli Kelty – 3rd in Technical Math Proud is an understatement. Thank you to Mr. Hewson for the work you put into building a program that gives our kids the tools to succeed. Gold winners even have the opportunity to represent Kansas at the National SkillsUSA Conference in Atlanta this June!

We’re so proud of these LMS students who were recognized for their hard work in the classroom during Q3! During the awards, Mr. Sundahl celebrated students not just for academics, but also for showing up to school with kindness, leadership, and positive choices. And a big shoutout to 8th grader Calvin Keith, who was undefeated on the mat this wrestling season! #larnedpride
