BooksAt Longfellow Elementary School, we prepare all students today for success tomorrow, and we know that reading is the best predictor of school success. We try to give our students books of their own a few times a year so they can build up their personal library. $10 will get a child 3 new books. |

Playground EquipmentWe all know that children need a safe place to play and that there are cognitive, physical, and social-emotional benefits to play. A growing body of research indicates that recess is critical for healthy child development. Last but not least, play is fun and our children need fun! Our playground equipment is so old that they don’t make it anymore. The District has repaired and/or replaced parts of it several times, but it’s getting harder and harder to do that because the parts simply aren’t made anymore. Typically the PTA / PTO covers the cost of the equipment; and the cost of playground equipment is too big a burden for our families to bear. |
