Hello from Mrs. Pasquale and Ms. Girt
Dear Longfellow Families,
We’ve officially started a new grading period. Parent-Teacher Conferences are scheduled for this week and next; we look forward to connecting with you to celebrate your child's progress and discuss how we can continue to support their success. This Wednesday and Thursday, our third graders will be taking the Ohio State Test (OST) — please make sure they get plenty of rest and arrive on time. Looking ahead, Halloween Bingo and classroom parties are just around the corner! Longfellow is busy, busy, busy! Thank you for your continued support!
With appreciation,
Your Longfellow Elementary Principals
Karen Pasquale and Ashley Girt
