🔥 Mr. Apley took a powerhouse team — Gage Donnecker, Dylan Roberds, Daniel Kelty, and Jameson Smith — to the FFA competition. They had to weld the 2G position on 1/4 inch plate, precision-cut with an oxygen and acetylene torch. Using SMAW welders with 2 different electrodes, these boys showcased true craftsmanship. Gage took 3rd, Daniel took 7th, and Larned FFA proudly earned 3rd place overall. 💪 #larnedpride #besttribeever

The following students were nominated by their teachers for going above and beyond with acts of kindness: Coutney Craft, Jordunn Haremza, James Garetto (not pictured) and Sergio Holguin. These students have shown and continue to show upstanding actions by speaking out or acting in support of an individual or cause and therefore are making a positive impact at Larned High School. #larnedpride #besttribeever
