Teamwork + creativity = balloon chairs! 🎈💡 Our LHS JAG class took on the challenge of building a chair using only balloons, tape, and string. They had 30 minutes to make a seat, arms, and back sturdy enough for a teammate to sit in for 15 seconds. The designs were awesome, and the teamwork was even better! #learningisfun #larnedpride #besttribeever











🚗 LES Families: We know that mornings can feel rushed, but please use our designated drop-off areas when bringing your student to school. Our parking lot is for parking only - it is not a drop-off lane. Your cooperation ensures a safe and smooth morning for everyone! #larnedpride #lesfamily #bettertogether
