That Kim Barnes sure knows how to brighten a day! Thank you for treating our staff to muffins on Tuesday. Your support means so much to all of us! #larnedpride #bettertogether
We had a truly amazing first day of school yesterday and wanted our board members and district office staff to feel the excitement and joy these kiddos bring to our school every day! Thank you for hosting our first Hi5 Friday of the school year at LES. It was a great morning! #larnedpride #lesfamily #bettertogether
Earlier this week, LES received a generous donation from Convoy of Hope through Valley Community Church. The delivery included bandaids, sanitizers, snacks, toothpaste, and more! Thank you for caring for our kids and staff . #bettertogether #larnedpride #lesfamily
Nobody asked… but we’ve got WAY more than 10 reasons to come Tailgate with the Tribe tomorrow! 🎉
🍴 1. Bella's Mexican food… enough said.
🔥 2. Floyd’s Smoke Shack hits the spot every time.
🍧 3. Bahama Mamas snow cones. Have you ever seen someone turn one down? Us either.
🍕 4. Flatlanders flatbread pizza. (Do we really need to explain?)
🍰 5. Freaking Delicious Cheesecake. Mic drop.
🎟️ 6. Snag your tickets for the Foundation for Education’s Biggest Fan raffle.
🧢 7. Patch it up! Personalize hats, jackets, bags—you name it.
🌭 8. FREE hot dog meal for every USD 495 kid!
🎶 9. Tim Tunes will keep the music rolling.
🧡 10. Larned Indian Booster Club = all the Larned gear you could ever want.
And because we can’t stop at 10… there will also be slip n slides, the fire truck, the Humane Society (with furry friends 🐾), the ladies from the library running a tattoo parlor, Valley Community Church with an activity, and word is the Sheriff is bringing an obstacle course.
So plan on joining us! Bring a towel, grab a lawn chair, and stay awhile. #larnedpride #bettertogther

There are so many people who make USD 495 what it is. Paras, aides, bus drivers, cooks, subs, speech paths and assistants, occupational therapists, school psychs, custodians, groundskeepers, librarians, and our maintenance crew all matter in big ways to our kids and to all of us. We couldn’t do it without them! 🧡 #larnedpride
*Not all are pictured… some hide on picture day, and some have joined us since our last round of photos! 🙂

There’s been a little changing and rearranging over the summer, so we wanted to help you get familiar with some of the faces you’ll see as we head back to school this week!
Next is our middle school crew! They help students manage new schedules, new friends, and new challenges. They also mix patience, encouragement, and just the right amount of humor to get through the day. 📚 They’re excited to see you in the halls this week! #larnedpride

Our staff shirts are extra special this year 🧡 Over the summer, we collected everyone’s start date with the district and turned it into the number on their “jersey.” With our theme Together We Win and an inspiring day with Jackie Stiles, it was the perfect way to kick off the year with our team.
