LMS Students & Parents - Please check your email for a letter from Mr. Sundahl about upcoming school year.
LMS Parents and Students,
As we prepare for the start of the upcoming 2020-21 school year, please note the change to the FIRST Day of the school year at LMS. On Thursday, August 20, only 6th grade students will come at 8 am and attend in the morning that day. We will have some beginning of the year activities and a chance for the 6th graders to get accustomed to new teachers and procedures before the other students arrive. At noon, all the 7th & 8th grade students will come for the start of the year activities that afternoon. We look forward to welcoming back our LMS students on that Thursday.
Again, thank you for the opportunity to work with you in the Fort Larned School District. If you have any questions or encounter any obstacles, please call 285-8430.
Thank you,
Shane Sundahl, Principal
Larned Middle School

On Wednesday, Governor Kelly announced that she is delaying the start of school in Kansas until after Labor Day. With this announcement it will affect our school calendar for the 2020-2021 year. We are in the process of updating that calendar with the new start date that also reflects the state requirements for hours. We are also working to develop plans for the reopening of schools based on three goals: 1. Return to school for in person education, while providing additional educational opportunities at parental request; 2. Being able to maintain in person school operations throughout the 2020-2021 school year; and 3. Provide both equitable and suitable, teaching and learning that meets district/state adopted outcomes.
Enrollment has opened. Please complete the enrollment so we can make appropriate plans for the start of school and ensure appropriate resources can be arranged. Thank you for your patience and flexibility as we continue to navigate these changes.
