Stand 4 Kind members came to Larsen and gave an amazing assembly full BMX bike tricks, jumps, and other stunts.  Their assemblies are designed to raise anti-bullying awareness, increase prevention, and encourage students to speak up when they know of situations that pose a danger to themselves or others.  It was so much fun and the students loved when they jumped over some of our teachers.  We know that Larsen students will be kind to others and treat everyone with respect.

It's that time of year already for SEP conferences on October 9th. Sign ups are now available.  If you look on the right side of the website you will see a quick link for grade levels.  Choose your students grade level and scroll down until you find your child's teacher.  Then select a time slot that works with your schedule.  You will notice that appointments are booked back to back.  Arriving a few minutes before your scheduled time will allow for your teacher's schedule to run more smoothly.
