Mrs. Stahlecker's yearbook class split into teams and made charcuterie boards this morning! The boards highlighted their creativity, versatility, and ability to work as a team. (They looked pretty delicious, too!) After assembled, each board was judged on theme implementation, best presentation, and best overall board. How would you rate these boards? #larnedpride

We would like to sincerely thank our coaches, student athletes, and parents for helping us navigate the scorching heat this week! We know this has been a collective effort by everyone involved to move practice times to before the first bell rings at school. They have been up and at ‘em bright and early every day to make sure we adhere to the guidelines set forth by KSHSAA. Safety always comes first - and when temperatures are as high as they’ve been, it’s crucial to prioritize the well-being of our athletes, no matter the sport. 🎾🏈⛳🏐👟 For your reference, we have attached the heat & humidity guidelines from KSHSAA. Go Indians! 🧡🖤#larnedpride


Those #goodnewscallhome started back up at LES this week! We love seeing those smiles telling their family about something positive.
