Cracked? The kindergarten classes at Larsen Elementary School tried everything they could think of to keep Humpty Dumpty from cracking. Students hard boiled an egg and then thought of ways to keep it safe from their custodian Mr. Mecham as he threw them off the top of the school building.

Shown is Chloe Phillips from Mrs. Hyer's class with her egg in the Egg Drop at Larsen Elementary.
