Can't Make Meet the Teacher Night?

Don't panic!  We will be publishing the Google Classroom Codes for all teachers after tonight's event.  These are the codes that students will use to access important information and assignments each day for their classes.  Teachers will be including the information covered during tonight's calls in their Google Classroom.


We will also publish an FAQ that will cover many of questions our students and parents have had about getting back to school.

THE LATEST FROM LONG

Students will follow their normal daily schedule during distance learning.  You can find the 2020-2021 Bell Schedule on our PTA Website!

Students will not be required to wear school uniforms while distance learning, but they should be dressed appropriately (no PJs or revealing tank tops please!) and ready to interact with fellow students and teachers each day.  

You can prepare for our eventual return to school by viewing the 2020-2021 Dress Code on our PTA Website.

2020-2021 Band Information

As we are preparing for a virtual start to the school year, please be sure you've filled out our Google Form for any students that will be in Band for the 2020-2021 school year. This includes the following courses: Trumpet, French Horn, Brass, Euphonium, Trombone, Percussion, Flute, Woodwinds, Clarinet, Saxophone, Varsity Band, and Non Varsity Band with either Schmidt and Pintek as the instructors.
