Welcome to Larsen Elementary
Spotting Excellence in Every Student
Mrs. Taylor's first grade class participated in a "break out" activity with Mr. Peterson. It was a math review and the students had to work together to solve problems. The math problem answers then were clues for the code to the locks. They had 5 different locks to open. The students loved doing this activity and sure are smart first graders. Thank you Mr. Peterson for this fun activity!
This Friday is the last day of school! It has been such a great school year with lots of learning and fun. Students will be getting out at 12:00 noon on Friday so be sure to make arrangements to have them picked up at that time. Lunch will still be served that day also. We hope everyone has an awesome summer and stays safe!
Larsen Elementary received a $500 check from Macey's for the School Cents program. What is the School Cents program ? This is how Macey's describes it:
"School Cents is our way of giving back and supporting our communities' education system. The School Cents program is run through Macey's Perks® program allowing us to electronically track the rewards each school earns. Your school will earn one percent* of every purchase made by its supporters."
Thank you Macey's for supporting Larsen students and helping us in our academic goals!
Today was the annual 6th grade vs Faculty kickball game. There has been a lot of talk around the school on who was going to be victorius between the two teams. We are pretty sure the faculty won but 6th grade is protesting the actual score. The PTA saved everyone at the end of the game by bringing Otter Pops to cool off afterwards. It was so fun and a great way to bring spirit to our school. Great job everyone!
Larsen 5th graders held their annual State Fair and wax museum on Friday. Students were given a state to research and make a diorama about interesting facts about it. Then students chose a famous person from that state to dress up as and tell about them to visitors. They did a great job and everyone learned some awesome facts about the United States!
Our 4th grade has been studying all about the pioneers and on Friday they celebrated all that they had learned. The students dressed like pioneers, played pioneer games, made crafts with yarn and a bunch more! The classes ended the day with square dancing. Great job 4th grade!
