Cocoa with Candidates was a hit yesterday! 👑☕️ Our winter royalty candidates enjoyed spending time with our 5th graders. We think the feeling was probably mutual! #larnedpride #lesfamily #bettertogether

Good afternoon, USD 495 there will be 2-hour delay on Monday, January 26th. This will allow school arrival to take place during daylight hours, increasing the temperature and visibility for our drivers. The district will be operating in Phase 1 of our Inclement Weather Procedures. Ensuring safety is our top priority, we appreciate your support and understanding.

Good evening, USD 495 there will be NO SCHOOL on Friday, January 23rd. The decision is based upon unknown timing for arrival of winter weather Friday afternoon that could make school dismissal travel difficult. The district will be operating in Phase 3 of our Inclement Weather Procedures. Ensuring safety is our top priority, we appreciate your support and understanding

After continuing to monitor the forecast, we’ve also made the call to cancel the Ted Merten’s Middle School Wrestling Tournament scheduled for Saturday, January 24. The expected winter weather and extreme cold just aren’t improving, and we don’t feel comfortable with the travel conditions.

The tournament will not be rescheduled. We appreciate everyone’s understanding! #larnedpride

After watching the weather forecast closely, we’ve decided that LHS wrestling will not travel to Cimarron tomorrow. While the trip there may have been doable, snow is expected to move in later in the afternoon, along with strong winds and cold temperatures, which could make the drive home unsafe. With the safety of our students & staff in mind, the team will stay home. Thanks for understanding! #larnedpride
