Fort Larned USD 495

After consulting with our Health and Safety Advisory Committee and the Pawnee County Health Department, the Parade and Dance will not be part of this years Homecoming Activities. This was an extremely difficult decision, but we feel it is in the best interest for our student safety. We still want next week to be an exciting Homecoming Week and we will do everything we can to make it a great week for our students.

LMS Football AT Haven will be live streamed starting at 5 pm tonight on the following link. If you cannot make it to the game, you can watch online. Go Indians!! Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFchdAJM3vw&feature=youtu.be
