Welcome to the PTA!

Volunteering

Volunteering at your child’s school provides support the school needs, as well as the opportunity for you to participate in the Longfellow community. There are volunteer opportunities to match everyone’s interests, talents, and schedule!

 

The PTA always needs help at events, such as the Welcome Fair, Pancake Breakfast, 8th Grade Dinner Dance, for set up, clean up, decorating, chaperoning, and staffing events.
