We can learn how to guide them through it safely. Make plans to join us April 7!

What an exciting day for Mr. Shawn! He and Ms. Beth took a Social Studies field trip to the Pawnee County Sheriff's Office. Beth said Shawn was in awe when he walked in—and even more excited when he spotted familiar faces like our SRO, Officer Perez, and some former USD 495 staff.
They toured the office areas and even went upstairs to check out the hallways outside the jail cells. Shawn got a behind-the-scenes look at how things work... and yes, he did get to cuff Ms. Beth (and may have enjoyed that part the most!). #larnedpride #bettertogether #learningisfun
LHS FFA headed to Garden City yesterday for the Livestock Evaluation event! Students who made the trip were James Seeman, Eli Kelty, Faith Kelty, Addison Townsend, Gracie Nelson, Grayson Maxwell, Ryan Hill and Luke Krehbiel.
What an awesome learning experience for this crew! #larnedpride #learningisfun

Since 2018, senior volleyball and basketball players have put their handprints on the locker room ceiling, keeping a tradition that represents hard work, teamwork, and a little bit of #larnedpride.
The locker room is now filled with years of handprints—a reminder that once you’re part of this team, you always will be.
Shoutout to our 2025 seniors—Madison Wood, Karley Lemuz, and Kaylee Hagerman! We’ll miss you! 🧡🖤
