Our students love to get the opportunity to have experiences that normally require them to leave Larned, right in our very own town. Thank you to the Prairie Arts for continuing to bring the Wichita Children's Theatre to town for our students. The shows this year were Piggie and Gerald and School Days.

Tribe Time at LES brings all our students, from K-5, together in mixed-age groups every few weeks. They gather in different classrooms to learn, share, and have fun!

Don't cry over... Mrs. Dryden's class worked on wise words in writing this week. They created the end to the wise saying. While they created some clever sayings, they also learned the original too. There were lots of giggles as they presented to Mrs. Keith and Mrs. McGurk.

We had a great morning at LMS during our Board Work Session! 🎉 The Board heard from Mr. Upson’s drone class, Mrs. Hagerman’s StuCo members, and Mr. Sundahl.
Isaac showed off his drone skills, and our 6th grade StuCo members played a fun game with the Board and Superintendent. The Board also toured the building and even snuck into a few classrooms. 🏫
Thank you, LMS, for hosting! 🙌 #larnedpride
