Join us on November 12 for a fun evening of family activities, an IB scavenger hunt, learning, discovery, and prizes!

We look forward to seeing our Buccaneer families there!

Discover IB. Explore Together. Have Fun!

We still need parent volunteers!! Shifts are just 45 minutes and will support a staff member at each station. Families will move through stations at their own pace, participate in challenges and collect a stamp and a clue at each stop. All materials will be provided. We just need extra hands to ensure everyone can move through the stations easily.

Please share with currently 5th grade families interested in Long next year! Sign up here.

The PTA Peace Pantry committee makes ~65 bags per week for students at Long. These take-home bags include non perishable items for a main meal as well as breakfast items and snacks. The Peace Pantry is made possible through monetary donations as well as food donations. Please consider a donation through the Amazon or Walmart wish lists!!

If you would like to help stock the Boutique at Long with clothing and hygiene items that students also need, items currently needed can be found on the same Amazon Wishlist. We also gladly accept like-new or gently used items. Please do not send anything that is stained, damaged, or has holes.
