Parents,

This is a reminder that the fundraiser sales sheets are due on Monday, April 28th.  They have a quick turn-around in getting the orders ready and back to us.  I would plan on getting the bags to deliver in the later part of the week next week.  Thanks for your help and support and for all you do to make Larsen great!  This is the best school because we have the best students and parents.

Reading Shoot Out!!

Submitted by natalee.hansen on

Friday April 4th, we held our March Madness Basketball Shootout!! Students were required to read during the month of March and received tickets with their names on them to be put into a drawing.  We drew one girl and one boy from each grade level.  The students were able to choose ANY adult in the school to shoot baskets for/with them.  They had one minute to shoot from five different marked spots on the floor and for every basket shot they received $1.00. tons of other prizes were given out such as gift certificates, books, folders and lots more fun items.

Clowning Around For Reading!!

Submitted by natalee.hansen on

On April 1, we had an assembly from the Champions' Challenge Rodeo that is coming to Spanish Fork on Saturday, May 31.  The assembly was hosted by Randy Munns, the rodeo clown,  along with members of the Spanish Fork Fiesta Days Royalty and members of the Rodeo Committee.  Randy Munns dressed up one of our students Cameron Rose, like a rodeo clown and taught him how to jump in the bull-fighting barrel.  He also taught Mr. Andersen what it was like in the barrel!
