Our Board of Education held a special "Board Work Session" at Larned Elementary this morning!
They had the chance to hear from Mrs. McGurk and several student ambassadors before visiting a few classrooms. It was a great opportunity for discussions around LES successes and challenges, and we loved having them in the building during a regular school day.
Thank you to our Board members for coming and for all that you do to support our schools! They will hold similar Board Work Sessions at LMS and LHS later this year. #larnedpride #lesfamily

We had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Randy Watson, Kansas' Commissioner of Education, and Kansas State Board of Education members Dennis Hershberger and Jim McNiece at Larned High School today! They spent time with Mr. Hewson learning about the incredible equipment and programming in our Construction class (including our new electrical lab!), and then visited Mrs. Stahlecker, Mrs. Pontius, and the students involved in Indian Ink, our student-run apparel business. It was a great opportunity to showcase the hard work of our students and staff. Thanks for coming! #larnedpride #besttribeever
Friday was #WhyApply Day! 🎓
The first step in going to college is to apply! For many students, this can feel overwhelming, especially for those who are the first in their family to pursue postsecondary education. That’s why Apply Kansas is here! As part of this statewide campaign, schools help seniors apply to college with support from staff, community members, and postsecondary volunteers.
Mark your calendars for Kansas Apply Free Days on October 7-9, 2024! During these three days, any Kansas resident—regardless of age or income—can apply for free to any of our 7 public universities, 19 community colleges, 6 technical colleges, and the 21 private institutions of the Kansas Independent College Association. Learn more here: Apply Free Days.
Check out what some of our school staff wish they had known before starting their post-secondary adventures and hear them share their "why" — why they applied, why it mattered to them, and why our students should too! Share your "why" in the comments below! 💬👇 #larnedpride #WhyApply @Kansas Board of Regents
🗓️ We sent out a communication survey early last week, and some of you shared a great idea: a weekly layout of all the upcoming events! We loved the suggestion, and what better time to kick it off than a busy week like Homecoming?! 🧡🖤 #larnedpride #bettertogether
🎉 Here’s what’s on this week’s agenda at USD 495 and another look at the plan for spirit week!
Update from Pratt. The lightening has moved to the east. The gates will open at 7 pm. There will be a 45 minutes warm up time for the teams. The plan is a to kick off at 7:45. #larnedpride
Lightning is still prevalent around the Pratt area….Tonight’s football game with Pratt is still on hold. Once the lightning moves past the Pratt area; we will put 45 minutes on the clock for the team warmup and allow time for spectators to enter the stadium. At this time; the stadium remains closed. #larnedpride
Update: Tonight’s game at Pratt has been pushed back to a 7:30 PM start. Gates will open once Pratt announces the all-clear. #larnedpride
Our 3rd graders had a blast participating in a live mock trial as part of a special Constitution Day event! 🇺🇸⚖️ After learning about the Constitution and the three branches of government, they became the jury and decided the verdict. Such a fun, hands-on way to learn about our government! #larnedpride #learningisfun #lesfamily
Doesn't Hi5 Friday just make your heart happy?
We had such a fun and friendly group hosting, and a couple of our students really stepped up their high five game! Thank you, Larned Correctional Facility, for being a special part of our morning. 🖤🧡 #larnedpride #bettertogether
In LHS Anatomy, students created 3D models of organs to explain how they function and help the body maintain homeostasis—the process that keeps our internal systems balanced, like regulating body temperature and blood pressure. 🧠💡 Hands-on learning at its best! #larnedpride #besttribeever #learningisfun
There’s no place like Homecoming! 🏠🧡🖤
Most of the upcoming theme days can be put together with things you already have at home, but we wanted to share the schedule in case you need a little extra time to plan for all the fun next week! 🎉✨ #larnedpride
