Spread half the white sauce in the bottom of a 9X12 inch greased baking dish. Lay 2 lasagna sheets over the sauce, spread with half the squash mixture. Add another layer of lasagna sheets, and then spread with half the ricotta. Repeat process. Top ricotta filling with remaining white sauce and extra Parmesan cheese. Cover the baking pan with foil.
