Today our natural resources class toured the Lanesboro Electric Plant which features one of the state's only hydroelectric sources of energy! We also learned about the solar panels that help power our city. Thanks Jeff for a great tour!

FFA members helped beautify the town for fall! Working in cooperation with the Chamber, Downtown Business Promotion Group, Big Springs Farm Pumpkins & Corn Maze LLC (provided stalks), Lanesboro Area Community Foundation (funding) the town is now festive for fall!

PICTURE DAY REMINDER! Elementary Picture Day is September 17th. 7th to 12th Grade Picture Day is September 18th. Retakes are scheduled for November 6th.

Attention Burro Nation: New this year all home games held in the main gym or at the football field can be streamed for FREE at fan.hudl.com or on the "Hudl Fan" app. Many other local schools are using Hudl to stream as well, so you can catch many road games, too. We will continue to host these games on NFHSnetwork.com as well, but that is a subscription based service. (All other links you see are spam/scams). Please continue to support our athletes in person as much as you can, but when you can't this is a great way to stay in on the action!

We have a busy 24 hours ahead for our Burro athletes heading into the weekend! The action kicks off tonight with varsity football home vs. Kingsland. Tomorrow the cross country teams head to Decorah for the Luther College All-American Invite and the varsity volleyball team travels to Wabasha for the Biever Volleyball Classic. Good luck to all!

Exciting news from Eyota that our girls cross country team took first place at the meet tonight with Autumn Rakosnik taking first place overall - congratulations!

The 2023-24 Elementary Yearbooks are being distributed tomorrow! Look for those in your kids' backpacks! If you think you ordered one and it does not arrive, please contact Stena Lieb.

Thanks to the Lanesboro Booster Club and Lanesboro Public Schools for our new music stands! The kids can't wait to get them in action next week!
